Compound `C_2H_6O` has two isomers X and Y. On reaction with HI, X gives alkyl iodide arid water while Y gives alkyl iodide and alcohol. Compounds X and Y are respectively:

A

`C_(2)H_(5)OC_(2)H_(5)` and `CH_(3)OC_(2)H_(5)`

B

`CH_(3)OCH_(3)` and `C_(2)H_(5)OCH_(3)`

C

`C_(2)H_(5)OH` and `CH_(3)OCH_(3)`

D

`CH_(3)OH` and `CH_(3)OCH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`underset((x))(C_(2)H_(5))OH + HI to C_(2)H_(5)I + H_(2)O, underset(Y)(CH_(3)OCH_(3)) + HI to CH_(3)I + CH_(3)OH`
