    Which is the best reagent to distinguish between propene and propyne?

    A)  ammonical\[AgN{{O}_{3}}\]

    B)  \[\frac{B{{r}_{2}}}{CC{{l}_{4}}}\]

    C)  alkaline\[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]

    D)  aqueous\[B{{r}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Ammonical\[AgN{{O}_{3}}\]reacts only with propyne to give white precipitate, while propene does not react with it. \[C{{H}_{3}}-C\equiv CH+AgN{{O}_{3}}+N{{H}_{4}}OH\]\[\xrightarrow{{}}C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{white}{\mathop{C\equiv }}\,CAg\downarrow +N{{H}_{4}}N{{O}_{3}}+{{H}_{2}}O\]
