Hydroxy ethanoic acid is a white solid, readly soluble in water. It is prepared by the hydrolysis of chloroethanoic acid with sodium hydroxide followed by acidification. It exhibits the properties of both a monocarboxylic acid and a primary alchol. In addition, it undergoes reactions which neither a carboxylic acid nor a primary alcohol can undergo. Which of the following products is formed when hydroxyethanoic acid is being heated?

alpha - amino acids are high melting crystalline solids because of the zwitterion structure. They are moderately soluble in water. In acidic medium, alpha - amino acids exist as cations (I) and thus migrate towards cathode under the influence of an electric field. On the other hand, in alkaline medium, alpha - amino acids exist as anions (III) and thus migrate towards anode under the influence of an electric field. However, at some intermediate value of p^(H) , the concentration of the cationic form (I) and anionic form (III) will become equal and consequently the alpha - amino acid will exist primarily as the neutral dipolar ion (II). At this p^(H) , there would be no net migration of the amino acid in an electric field. This p^(H) at which there is no net migration of the amino acid under the influence of an applied electric field is called isoelectric point (pI). Each amino acid has a characteristic isoelectric point. The pH of an amino acid that does not have an ionisable side chain such as alanine isd average of pK_(a) values of the carboxyl group and the protonated amino group.

Hyperconjugation describes the orbital interactions between the p-systems and the adjacent s-bond of the substituent group(s) in organic compounds. Hyperconjugation is also called as Baker and Nathen effect. The necessary and sufficient condition for the hyperconjugation are : i) Compound should have at least on sp2 hybrid carbon of either alkene, carbocation or alkyl free radical. ii) A-carbon with respect to sp2 hybrid carbon should have at least one hydrogen. Hyperconjugation are of three types: (i) s(C-H), p-conjugation. (iii) s(C-H), positive charge conjugation iv) s(C-H), odd electron conjugation The hyperconjugation may be represented as Number of resonating structures due to hyperconjugation = (n + 1) where n is the number of a-hydrogen. Greater is the number of such forms, more is the stability of the species under considersation. Stability of saturated alkyl carbocations can be explained by
