The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

$CH _{3} OH$ and $C _{2} H _{5} OH$ can be differentiated by using $Na _{2} CO _{3}$ and $I_{2}, C_{2} H_{5} O H$ gives yellow precipitate of $C H I_{3}$ whereas $C H_{3} O H$ does not react with it.
$C _{2} H _{5} OH +4 I _{2}+ Na _{2} CO _{3} \rightarrow \underset{\overset{\text{lodoform}}{\text{(yellow ppt.)}}}{CHI_3}+5 NaI + HCOONa +3 CO _{2}+ H _{2} O$

P-Block Elements

  • P block elements are those in which the last electron enters any of the three p-orbitals of their respective shells. Since a p-subshell has three degenerate p-orbitals each of which can accommodate two electrons, therefore in all there are six groups of p-block elements.
  • P block elements are shiny and usually a good conductor of electricity and heat as they have a tendency to lose an electron. You will find some amazing properties of elements in a P-block element like gallium. It’s a metal that can melt in the palm of your hand. Silicon is also one of the most important metalloids of the p-block group as it is an important component of glass.

P block elements consist of:
