Question:
A ketone ‘X’ gives CH\(_3\) when reacted with NaOI. The product of X on reaction with NaBH\(_4\) followed by treatment with H\(_2\)O is:
A ketone ‘X’ gives CH\(_3\) when reacted with NaOI. The product of X on reaction with NaBH\(_4\) followed by treatment with H\(_2\)O is:
Show Hint
The reaction of a ketone with NaOI gives an alkyl iodide. On reduction with NaBH\(_4\), the carbonyl group is reduced to a secondary alcohol.

The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
When ketone ‘X’ reacts with NaOI, it forms an alkyl iodide that gives a methyl group. On further reduction with NaBH\(_4\), the carbonyl group is reduced to a secondary alcohol. Hence, the product is
\(
{C}_6{H}_5{CH}_3{OH}
\).

- At \( T(K) \), in a closed vessel, a gas obeying the kinetic theory of gases has two molecules. The kinetic energy of these molecules is \( x_1 \) J and \( x_2 \) J respectively. After a few collisions, their kinetic energy is \( y_1 \) J and \( y_2 \) J respectively. Identify the correct relationship/s:
(1) \( x_1 = y_1 \)
(2) \( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} = \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \)
(3) \( x_2 = y_2 \)
(4) \( (x_1 - x_2)^2 = (y_1 - y_2)^2 \)
