The correct Answer is:
To identify the products (A) and (B) in the given reactions, we need to analyze the reactions step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first reaction The first reaction is: \[ RX + AgCN \rightarrow (A) + AgX \] - Here, \( RX \) represents an alkyl halide where \( R \) is an alkyl group and \( X \) is a halogen (Cl, Br, or I). - When \( RX \) reacts with silver cyanide (\( AgCN \)), it forms a product (A) and a precipitate of silver halide (\( AgX \)). - The product formed when an alkyl halide reacts with \( AgCN \) is isocyanide (\( RNC \)). ### Step 2: Analyze the second reaction The second reaction is: \[ RX + KCN \rightarrow (A) + KX \] - In this case, \( KCN \) is potassium cyanide, which is ionic. - When \( RX \) reacts with \( KCN \), it forms a product (A) and potassium halide (\( KX \)). - The product formed when an alkyl halide reacts with \( KCN \) is alkyl cyanide (\( RCN \)). ### Conclusion From the analysis: - In the first reaction, product (A) is isocyanide (\( RNC \)). - In the second reaction, product (A) is alkyl cyanide (\( RCN \)). - The precipitate (B) in both reactions is the corresponding silver or potassium halide (\( AgX \) or \( KX \)). Thus, the products are: - (A) = \( RNC \) (isocyanide) from the first reaction. - (B) = \( RCN \) (alkyl cyanide) from the second reaction. ### Final Answer - Product (A) = Isocyanide (\( RNC \)) - Product (B) = Alkyl Cyanide (\( RCN \))

To identify the products (A) and (B) in the given reactions, we need to analyze the reactions step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first reaction The first reaction is: \[ RX + AgCN \rightarrow (A) + AgX \] - Here, \( RX \) represents an alkyl halide where \( R \) is an alkyl group and \( X \) is a halogen (Cl, Br, or I). - When \( RX \) reacts with silver cyanide (\( AgCN \)), it forms a product (A) and a precipitate of silver halide (\( AgX \)). ...
