Alkanols can be manufactured from alkenes by the initial reaction of alkenes with
- bromine in tetrachloromethane
-
concentrated tetraoxosulphate(VI) acid
- aqueous potassium tetraoxomanganate(VII).
- sodium hydroxide solution.
The correct answer is: B
Explanation
An alkene reacts with conc. H2SO4 to yield an alkyl hydrogen tetraoxosulphate (VI). The compound formed undergoes hydrolysis when boiled with water to yield an alcohol.
