To solve the problem, we need to identify the compounds A and B in the given chemical processes. Let's break down each process step by step. ### Process (i): 1. **Starting Compound**: The starting compound is ethane, represented as \( CH_3CH_2 \). 2. **Reagent**: The first reagent is sodium cyanide (\( NaCN \)). 3. **Reaction Type**: The reaction of ethane with \( NaCN \) leads to the formation of a nitrile. The product A is thus **propionitrile** or **propane nitrile**, represented as \( CH_3CH_2CN \). 4. **Next Step**: The next step involves the reduction of A using hydrogen gas (\( H_2 \)) in the presence of a nickel catalyst (\( Ni \)). 5. **Reduction Outcome**: The reduction of propionitrile will convert the nitrile group (\( -CN \)) into an amine group (\( -NH_2 \)). Therefore, product B is **propylamine**, represented as \( CH_3CH_2CH_2NH_2 \) or **propane-1-amine**. ...
