A) Amine
B) Acid
C) Amines
D) Carbonyl compounds
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Acetonitriles on hydrolysis produce carboxylic acids with the evolution of ammonia. \[\underset{Acetonitrile}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-C\equiv N}}\,\xrightarrow{{{H}_{2}}O}\underset{Acetamide}{\mathop{CH-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} O \\ |\,\,| \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-N{{H}_{2}}}}\,\] \[\underset{Acetic\,\,acid}{\mathop{\xrightarrow{{{H}_{2}}O}C{{H}_{3}}-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} O \\ |\,\,| \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-OH+N{{H}_{3}}}}\,\]
