♦1)C6H5CH2Cl + aq NaOH --------> C6H5CH2OH + NaCl
NaCl + AgNO3 --------> AgCl (white precipitate) + NaNO3
♦Thus Benzyl chloride will give white precipitate with NaOH followed by AgNO3 whereas ,
♣chlorobenzene will not.

Chlorobenzene and Benzyl chloride Take both the compounds in a test tube. Add 1 - 2 ml of aqueous KOH to each of the test tubes. Acidify with dilute HNO3 and add AgNO3. Benzyl chloride gives white precipitate while chlorobenzene does not.
