The correct answer is option C, that is, has an irritating odor and is colorless.
Explanation:
Sulfur dioxide refers to a gas. It has a nasty, sharp smell and is invisible. It associates with other components to produce harmful compounds like sulfurous acid, sulfuric acid, and sulfate particles. It is the chemical compound with the formula SO. At standard temperature, it is a toxic gas with an irritating and pungent smell. The gas is released naturally by the volcanic activity.
The reduction of alkyne to an alkene in the first step allows the best reagent to be chosen for each subsequent step.
Describe reagents.
A reagent is merely an essential component of a chemical reaction, it should be mentioned. It is an ingredient that speeds up the reaction.
With H2 and Lindlar's catalyst, an alkyne is reduced to alkene as the initial step in this process. Alkene will then be brominated to produce allyl bromide as the next step.
In this instance, the required allyl alcohol will be produced via the reaction of allyl bromide with NaOH.
