Identify A and B in the following sequence of reaction.
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
In the reaction, toluene undergoes chlorination in the presence of light to form benzyl chloride (A). On further oxidation with water, it forms benzaldehyde (B).
Thus the correct answer is Option B.

Molten steel at 1900 K having dissolved hydrogen needs to be vacuum degassed. The equilibrium partial pressure of hydrogen to be maintained to achieve 1 ppm (mass basis) of dissolved hydrogen is ......... Torr (rounded off to two decimal places). Given: For the hydrogen dissolution reaction in molten steel \( \left( \frac{1}{2} {H}_2(g) = [{H}] \right) \), the equilibrium constant (expressed in terms of ppm of dissolved H) is: \[ \log_{10} K_{eq} = \frac{1900}{T} + 2.4 \] 1 atm = 760 Torr.
