(X) on treatment with sodium hydroxide followed bythe addition of silver nitrate gives white precipitate at room temperature which is soluble in `NH_4OH`. (X) can be:

A

Chlorobenzene

B

Ethyl bromide

C

Benzylchloride

D

Vinyl chloride

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`PhCH_(2)Cl` forms stable `PhCH_(2)^(+)` (benzyl `C^+`) ion. So the reaction is feasible,
