Answer:
The hydrolysis of nitriles, which are organic molecules containing a cyano group, leads to carboxylic acid formation. These hydrolysis reactions can take place in either acidic or basic solutions. The mechanism for these reactions involves the formation of an amide followed by hydrolysis of the amide to the acid.
