Answer all questions in this section.
0 1 This question is about the analysis of organic compounds.
For each pair of compounds in Questions 01.1 and 01.2, give a reagent (or
combination of reagents) that could be added separately to each compound in a
single reaction to distinguish between them.
State what is observed in each case.
