Question

Complete and balance the following equation: (a) C2H5Br + KOH (alcoholic) → (b) C2H5OH → (conc. H2SO4, 170°C) (c) CH4 + Cl2 →

Complete and balance the following equation: (a) C₂H₅Br + KOH (alcoholic) → (b) C₂H₅OH →(conc. H₂SO₄, 170°C) (c) CH₄ + Cl₂ →

The dehydration of ethyl alcohol with conc. H2SO4 at 140°C mainly yields ______ while at 170°C the main product formed is ______.

An organic compound 'A', molecular formula C₂H₆O oxidises with CrO₃ to form a compound 'B'. Compound 'B' on warming with iodine and aqueous solution of NaOH gives a yellow precipitate of compound 'C'. When compound 'A' is heated with conc. H₂SO₄ at 413 K gives a compound 'D', which on reaction with excess HI gives compound 'E'. Identify compounds 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' and 'E' and write chemical equations involved.
