Answer 2

Explanation:

• H₃C-CH=CH₂ + Cl₂ → H₃C-CH(-Cl)=CH₂ + NaOH →  H₃C-CH(-OH)=CH₂

• H₃C-CH(-OH)=CH₂ + HOCl → H₂C(-OH)-CH(-Cl)-CH₂OH

• H₂C(-OH)-CH(-Cl)-CH₂OH + NaOH → H₂C(OH)-CH(-OH)-CH₂OH

Propylene reacts with Cl₂ at 717 k and gives 2-chloropropene which in reaction with NaOH and finally with HOCl gives Glycerol.
