हिन्दीThe compound A on treatment with Na gives B, and with \( \mathrm{PCl_5} \) gives C. B and C react together to give diethyl ether. A, B and C are in the order of
Correct answer · Option 4
\( \mathrm{C_2H_5OH, C_2H_5ONa, C_2H_5Cl} \)
Explanation
A is \( \mathrm{C_2H_5OH} \). With Na, it forms B \( (\mathrm{C_2H_5ONa}) \). With \( \mathrm{PCl_5} \), it forms C \( (\mathrm{C_2H_5Cl}) \). Williamson synthesis between B and C yields diethyl ether.
