$C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}Cl + KCN(aq.) \rightarrow X + Y$

Compounds X and Y are.

$C_{6}H_{6} + KCl$

$C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}CN + KCl$

$C_{6}H_{5}CH_{3} + KCl$

None of these

Answer

$C_{6}H_{5}CH_{2}CN + KCl$

Explanation

$C_{6}H_{5} - CH_{2} - Cl + KCN(aq) \rightarrow C_{6}H_{5} - CH_{2} - C \equiv N + KCl$
