1.	Compound A is obtained by following reaction. CH_(3)COOC_(2)H_(5) overset((i) C_(2)H_(5)ONa) underset((ii)H_(3)O^(+)) to [A] How many following statement(s) is(are) true about A ? (i) It gives red colour with blue litmus solution. (ii) It decomposes NaHCO_(3), solution and evolves CO_(2)gas. (iii) It decolourises bromine water colour. (iv) It reacts with 2,4-dinitrophenyl-hydrazine (v) Product A will undergo acid catalysed halogenation.
