Correct answer: B

We match each compound with its characteristic reagent/test.

1. Match lysine

Lysine is an α\alphaα-amino acid. Amino acids give the ninhydrin test.

Lysine→ninhydrin=(Q)\text{Lysine} \to \text{ninhydrin} = (Q)Lysine→ninhydrin=(Q)

So, (A)→(Q)(A) \to (Q)(A)→(Q)


2. Match furfural

Furfural is an aldehyde formed from carbohydrates and gives a characteristic color reaction with 111-naphthol (Molisch-type related carbohydrate test chemistry).

Furfural→1-naphthol=(P)\text{Furfural} \to 1\text{-naphthol} = (P)Furfural→1-naphthol=(P)

So, (B)→(P)(B) \to (P)(B)→(P)


3. Match benzyl alcohol

Benzyl alcohol is an alcohol, and ceric ammonium nitrate is a standard reagent used to test alcohols.

Benzyl alcohol→ceric ammonium nitrate=(S)\text{Benzyl alcohol} \to \text{ceric ammonium nitrate} = (S)Benzyl alcohol→ceric ammonium nitrate=(S)

So, (C)→(S)(C) \to (S)(C)→(S)


4. Match styrene

Styrene contains a carbon-carbon double bond. Unsaturation is detected by oxidation with KMnO4\mathrm{KMnO_4}KMnO4​ (Baeyer’s reagent).

Styrene→KMnO4=(R)\text{Styrene} \to \mathrm{KMnO_4} = (R)Styrene→KMnO4​=(R)

So, (D)→(R)(D) \to (R)(D)→(R)


5. Final matching

Thus the correct set is:

(A)→(Q),(B)→(P),(C)→(S),(D)→(R)(A) \to (Q), \quad (B) \to (P), \quad (C) \to (S), \quad (D) \to (R)(A)→(Q),(B)→(P),(C)→(S),(D)→(R)

This corresponds to Option B.
