    \[C{{H}_{2}}=C{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow{HBr}X\xrightarrow{Aq.KOH}Y\xrightarrow[{{I}_{2}}]{N{{a}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}}Z\]In the above reaction sequence,\[Z\]is

    A) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\]                              

    B) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}I\]

    C) \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO\]                          

    D) \[CH{{I}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[C{{H}_{2}}=C{{H}_{2}}+HBr\xrightarrow{{}}C{{H}_{3}}\underset{X}{\mathop{-}}\,C{{H}_{2}}Br\] \[\underset{X}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}Br}}\,\xrightarrow[-KBr]{Aq.KOH}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  ethyl\,\,alcohol \\  Y \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}OH}}\,\] \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}OH+N{{a}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}+{{I}_{2}}\xrightarrow[(iodoform\,\,test)]{}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  iodoform \\  Z \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CH{{I}_{3}}}}\,\]\[+HCOONa+NaI+C{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\]
