What will be the organic compound formed, when aluminium carbide react with deuterated water?

  • A
    $\mathrm{CD}_3 \mathrm{OD}$
  • B
    $\mathrm{DCOOD}$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $\mathrm{CD}_4$
  • D
    $\mathrm{D}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{CD}_3$

Solution

When aluminium carbide $\left(\mathrm{Al}_4 \mathrm{C}_3\right)$ is react with deuterated water $\left(\mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)$ as a product formed $\mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{OH})_3$ and $\mathrm{CD}_4$ $\mathrm{Al}_4 \mathrm{C}_3+12 \mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O} \longrightarrow 4 \mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{OD})_3+3 \mathrm{CD}_4$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
