Answer 2

Ethyl Chloride is converted into Propane Nitrile first and then by hydrolysis, it is converted into Propanoic Acid.

Explanation:

• Ethyl Chloride having the chemical composition of $CH_3CH_2Cl$ or $C_2H_5Cl$ is having the weight 64.5 grams is converted into Propane Nitrile at the first stage and by reacting it with Potassium Cyanide, KCN.

• The reaction is:

        $CH_3CH_2Cl + KCN \rightarrow CH_3CH_2CN + KCl.$

• The obtained KCl is a by-product and is extracted.

• Then Propane Nitrile, $CH_3CH_2CN,$ is converted into Propanoic acid by the Hydrolysis process.

• The reaction is:

       $CH3_CH_2CN + H_2O \rightarrow CH_3CH_2COOH.$
