It's in A2 because of alkaline Iodine thing.hassam said:A chloroalkane W with molecular formula of C5H11Cl exhibits optical activity. On warming
W with alcoholic NaOH, two alkenes X and Y are formed, X being the major product.
One of the products of the reaction between X and hot acidified potassium
manganate(VII) gives a yellow precipitate with alkaline aqueous iodine. Which of the
following could be W?
A CH3CHClCH2CH2CH3 C CH3CH(CH3)CHClCH3
B CH3CH2CHClCH2CH3 D CH3CCl(CH3)CH2CH3
