Match each compound in List I with the reaction it characteristically shows in List II. Choose the correct matching. List I (Compounds) (1) CH3CH2CH2NH2 (2) CH3C≡CH (3) CH3CH2COOCH3 (4) CH3CH(OH)CH3 List II (Reactions) (i) undergoes alkaline hydrolysis (ii) with alcoholic KOH and CHCl3 gives a foul odour (iii) forms a white precipitate with ammoniacal AgNO3 (iv) with Lucas reagent, turbidity appears after 5 minutes

1. (iv) (ii) (iii) (i)
2. (iv) (i) (ii) (iii)
3. (ii) (iii) (i) (iv)
4. (iii) (ii) (iv) (i)

Correct answer: (iv) (i) (ii) (iii)

Solution

The correct option matches each compound with its characteristic reaction: the alcohol reacts with Lucas reagent to show turbidity (iv), the ester undergoes alkaline hydrolysis (i), the alkyne reacts with alcoholic KOH and CHCl3 to produce a foul odor (ii), and the primary amine forms a white precipitate with ammoniacal AgNO3 (iii). This sequence accurately reflects the unique reactivity of each compound.
