Bottles containing C6H5I and C6H5CH2I lost their original labels. They were labelled A and B for testing. A and B were separately taken in a test tube and boiled with NaOH solution. The end solution in each tube was made acidic with dilute HNO3 and then some AgNO3 solution was added. Substance B gave a yellow precipitate. Which one of the following statements is true for this experiment?
(a) A was C6H5I
(b) A was C6H5CH2I
(c) B was C6H5I
(d) Addition of HNO3 was unnecessary
