(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

• The given following ethers prepared have to be explained with different reagents.  

Concept Introduction:

The Williamson ether synthesis is a reaction to converts alcohols $\left(\text{R-OH}\right)$ into ethers $\left(\text{R-O-R}\right)\text{.}$ The first step in this reaction is forming the conjugate base of the alcohol (called an alcoxide) by reacting the alcohol among sodium metal. This reaction forms hydrogen gas $\left(\text{H2}\right)$ as a biproduct.
