A hydrocarbon X, C4H6 (0.50 g), was shaken with hydrogen and palladium until uptake of hydrogen ceased; 415cm3 0f hydrogen (measured at stp) were absorbed. Reaction with mercury(II) sulphate in dilute sulphuric yielded Y, C4H8O; Y gave positive iodoform reaction. Polymerisation of X gave Z, C12H8. What are the structures of X, Y and Z.
(H = 1, C = 12, O = 16; 1 mole of gas at stp occupies 22400cm3).
List three deductions that can be made from the qualitative and quantitative analysis of a given organic compounds.
