The compound `C_4 H_8 Cl_2` (A) an hydrolysis gives a compound `C_4 H_8 O_1(B)`. The compound (B) reacts with hydroxylamine and gives a negative test with Tollen's reagent. What are (A)and (B), Support your answer with proper reasoning and give the equations of reactions.

Explanation

`C=0`. But it gives a negative test with tollen.s reagent `therefore` It is a ketone. `B` is obtained by the hydrolysis of A i.e. .both the `Cl` - atoms should be on the same carbon atoms. Hence `A`. is `CH_3 CCl_2, CH_2 CH_3`
