MCQ

Methanol and ethanol are distinguished by the

A
Action of $HCl$
✓
Iodoform test
C
Solubility in water
D
Sodium

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

Iodoform test

b
(b)${C_2}{H_5}OH$ gives iodoform test having $\alpha$-hydrogen atom while $C{H_3}OH$ does not give due to the absence of $\alpha$-hydrogen atom.
