Bottles containing $C_6H_5I$ and $C_6H_5-CH_2I$ lost their original labels. They were labelled $A$ and $B$ for testing. $A$ and $B$ were separately taken in a test tube and boiled with $NaOH$ solution. The end solution in each tube was made acidic with dilute $HNO_3$ and then some $AgNO_3$ solution was added. Substance $B$ gave a yellow precipitate.
