Hydroxy ethanoic acid is a white solid, ...

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.
