Question

A white precipitate was formed slowly when silver nitrate was added to a compound (A) with molecular formula C₆H₁₃Cl. Compound (A) on treatment with hot alcoholic potassium hydroxide gave a mixture of two isomeric alkenes (B) and (C), having formula C₆H₁₂. The mixture of (B) and (C), on ozonolysis, furnished four compounds :
What are the structures of (A), (B) and (C)?
