- A Propanoic acid
- B Propanamide
- C Butanoic acid
- D Butanamide
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Butanoic acid
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
n-propanol on treatment with concentrated HBr produces n-propyl bromide. n-propyl bromide on reaction with KCN to give butanenitrile.butanenitrile on hydrolysis give butanoic acid. CH3CH2CH2OH→HBrCH3CH2CH2BrCH3CH2CH2Br→KCNCH3CH2CH2CNCH3CH2CH2CN→H3O+CH3CH2CH2COOH
