The correct answer is option (A): Only Ether (CH₃ONa) + (CH₃)₃CBr → (CH₃)₃COCH₃ +NaBr This reaction is a nucleophilic substitution reaction. The nucleophilic methoxide ion will attack the tert-butyl bromide and there will be a substitution of the Bromide ion with the methoxide ion. The product will be ether and Sodium Bromide as a by-product. Therefore, only ether will be formed.
Alcohol is formed when a saturated carbon atom bonds to a hydroxyl (-OH) group. It is an organic compound that contains a hydroxyl functional group attached to a carbon atom.
Phenol is formed when the -OH group replaces the hydrogen atom in benzene. It is an organic compound in which a hydroxyl group directly attaches to an aromatic hydrocarbon.
Ether is formed when oxygen atom bonds to two alkyl or aryl groups. It is an organic compound that has an oxygen atom that is connected to two aryl and alkyl groups.
