Which of the following on hydrolysis forms acetic acid

A

CH3CN\mathrm { CH } _ { 3 } \mathrm { CN }

B

CH3OH\mathrm { CH } _ { 3 } \mathrm { OH }

C

C2H5OH\mathrm { C } _ { 2 } \mathrm { H } _ { 5 } \mathrm { OH }

D

C2H5NH2\mathrm { C } _ { 2 } \mathrm { H } _ { 5 } \mathrm { NH } _ { 2 }

Answer

CH3CN\mathrm { CH } _ { 3 } \mathrm { CN }

Explanation

Solution

CH3CN→H2OCH3COOH+NH3\mathrm { CH } _ { 3 } \mathrm { CN } \xrightarrow { \mathrm { H } _ { 2 } \mathrm { O } } \mathrm { CH } _ { 3 } \mathrm { COOH } + \mathrm { NH } _ { 3 }
