Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{C}_9 \mathrm{H}_{10} \mathrm{O}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

When benzyl iodide reacts with \(\mathrm{KCN}, \mathrm{CN}^{-}\) displaces I and form benzyl cyanide. Grignard reagent will add to nitrile to form imine. Imines can be treated with aqueous acid to give ketone.
