    In the reaction,\[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}COON{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}}A\xrightarrow{{{H}^{+}}/{{H}_{2}}O}B\]A and B are

    A)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CON{{H}_{2}},\,\,C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CO{{O}^{-}}\]

    B)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}COON{{H}_{2}},\,\,C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}COOH\]

    C)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CN,\text{ }C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CO{{O}^{-}}\]

    D)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CN,\text{ }C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}COOH\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}COON{{H}_{4}}\xrightarrow[-2{{H}_{2}}O]{{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}}C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}CN\] \[\xrightarrow{{{H}^{+}}/{{H}_{2}}O}\underset{propanoic\,acid}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}COOH}}\,\] Note \[{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\] acts as a dehydrating agent.
