AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to identify the compounds A, B, and C based on the information provided. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Identify Compound A Given the molecular formula \(C_4H_{10}O\), we can deduce that compound A is an alcohol since it is oxidized to form compound B. - **Degree of Unsaturation Calculation**: \[ \text{Degree of Unsaturation} = \frac{2C + 2 + N - H - X}{2} ...
