Which of the following give the positive test with alkaline KMnOs solution-(A) CHa(B) CH3-CH3, (C) CH2 CH2(D) of these

Answer»

Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons. When alkenes react with alkaline KMnO4, the alkenes are oxidized to alcohols. One hydroxyl group attaches to each carbon on either side of the carbon-carbon double bond. KMnO4 is first reduced to MnO4(2-), a dark green solution and then it's further reduced to MnO2, a dark brown precipitate.Hence option B ethene is alkene
