    Hey!Can explain you question no. 15. Others i too dont know. In 15 there is a slight misprint actually its a ketone c=o there, which can be converted to alkane on treatment with NH2-NH2, KOH which is called wolff kischner reduction. You might have studies this under the prepartion of alkanes using carbonyl compounds. We arent using clemmensen(Zn-Hg, amalgam) here cuz then it will replace the OH with Cl. NaBH4 will convert ketone to alcohol. H2,Pt wont give this reaction, it also coverts ketone to alcohol. Hence the answer is option B. Hope it helped you. Cheers!! 😀

    Q.no 6 —-> thats formation of D.D.T from chlorobenzene+Ccl3CHo

  • Shreshthi

    Ketones do not undergo nucleophillic reactions due to steric and electronic reasons
    Hence the ans provided i wrong!
