A monocarboxylic acid decolourise `Br_(2)-H_(2)O`, on heating with soda lime derivative of styrene is formed, with neutral `FeCl_(3)`, a buff coloured precipitate is formed . Acid could be :

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Reaction with `Br_(2)-H_(2)O` indicates presence of alkene and reaction with `FeCl_(3)` indicates presence of phenol.
