Explain the following:
Chloroform is chlorine compound but it fails to react with silver nitrate solution.
Explain the following:
Methyl chloride is hydrolysed more readily than chlorobenzene.
What happens when (Give equations):
Chloroform is warmed with aniline in the presence of alc. KOH?
1,1 dibromoethane on treatment with KOH (aq) gives acetaldehyde which on heating with tollen’s regents (amm. AgNO3) gives silver mirror test.
1,2 dibromoethane on treatment with KOH(aq) gives ethylene glycol which gives pink colour with ceric ammonium nitrate.
