Hydrolysis of dichlropropane gives acetone.
Explanation:
Hydrolysis:
- It is a ‘chemical reaction’ in which water has been used to break down a compound. This reaction is carried out by the breaking of covalent bond by inserting a water molecule in the compound across the bond.
- In the presence of aqueous KOH , dichloropropane undergoes hydrolysis to form acetone. In this reaction chlorine atoms are replaced by the hydroxyl groups of potassium hydroxide.
