The compoiund `A` is xylene. On sulphonation, it gives only one product `(B)` which on alkaine fusion followed by acidification yields `(C)`, a phenol. On treatment with chlorform and alkali, `(C)` gives `C_(9)H_(1) O_(2)(D)`. Idenifuy the various organic compounds `(A)` to `(D)`.

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem step by step, we will identify the compounds (A) to (D) based on the information given. ### Step 1: Identify Compound A The compound A is xylene. Xylene can exist in three isomeric forms: ortho-xylene, meta-xylene, and para-xylene. The problem states that xylene on sulphonation gives only one product. **Conclusion:** Since para-xylene gives only one product upon sulphonation, we conclude that: - **Compound A = Para-xylene (C8H10)** ...
