AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To determine which compound will give a curdy precipitate with AgNO₃ solution, we need to identify which of the given compounds can release chloride ions (Cl⁻) when reacted with silver nitrate (AgNO₃). The formation of a curdy precipitate indicates the formation of silver chloride (AgCl), which is a white precipitate. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Reaction**: - Silver nitrate (AgNO₃) reacts with chloride ions (Cl⁻) to form silver chloride (AgCl), which is a curdy precipitate. - The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{AgNO}_3 + \text{Cl}^- \rightarrow \text{AgCl} \downarrow + \text{NO}_3^- \] 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - We need to assess each compound to see if it can release a chloride ion when reacted with AgNO₃. 3. **Option 1: Chlorobenzene (C₆H₅Cl)**: - Chlorobenzene has a chlorine atom attached to a benzene ring. The chlorine is part of a stable aromatic system and is not easily removed. - **Conclusion**: Chlorobenzene will not give a curdy precipitate. 4. **Option 2: Vinyl Chloride (CH₂=CHCl)**: - Vinyl chloride can potentially release a chloride ion, but upon losing Cl⁻, it forms a carbocation (CH₂=CH⁺), which is unstable. - **Conclusion**: Vinyl chloride will not give a curdy precipitate. 5. **Option 3: Cyclohexene with Chlorine (C₆H₈Cl)**: - This compound can also release a chloride ion, but the resulting structure after losing Cl⁻ will have a positive charge on a double bond, which is also unstable. - **Conclusion**: This compound will not give a curdy precipitate. 6. **Option 4: A Seven-Membered Ring with Chlorine**: - This compound can release a chloride ion, and upon doing so, it forms a stable aromatic compound. - **Conclusion**: This compound will give a curdy precipitate with AgNO₃. ### Final Answer: The compound that will give a curdy precipitate with AgNO₃ solution is **Option 4** (the seven-membered ring with chlorine).
