Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to identify the compounds A and B in the given reactions. Let's break down the steps: ### Step 1: Identify the starting compound The starting compound is **CH₃CH₂Cl**, which is known as **Chloroethane**. ### Step 2: Reaction with NaCN When chloroethane (CH₃CH₂Cl) reacts with sodium cyanide (NaCN), a nucleophilic substitution reaction occurs. The cyanide ion (CN⁻) replaces the chlorine atom (Cl) in chloroethane. ...
