Vedclass · Answer

(D) Statement $(a)$ is incorrect because $C_2H_5Br$ reacts with alcoholic $KOH$ to undergo dehydrohalogenation,forming ethene $(C_2H_4)$,not ethanol $(C_2H_5OH)$.Statement $(b)$ is incorrect because $C_2H_5Br$ reacts with metallic sodium in the presence of dry ether (Wurtz reaction) to form butane $(C_4H_{10})$,not ethane.Statement $(c)$ is correct as it follows the Williamson ether synthesis: $C_2H_5Br + C_2H_5ONa 	o C_2H_5OC_2H_5 + NaBr$.Therefore,both $(a)$ and $(b)$ are incorrect.

Which of the following statements is incorrect?
