The correct Answer is:
To solve the given reaction sequence, we will analyze each step carefully. ### Step 1: Reaction of Benzaldehyde with Hydroxylamine The first step involves the reaction of benzaldehyde (C₆H₅CHO) with hydroxylamine (NH₂OH) under heating conditions. **Reaction:** \[ C_6H_5CHO + NH_2OH \xrightarrow{Heat} C_6H_5CH=NOH + H_2O \] **Product (X):** The product formed here is an oxime, specifically benzaldehyde oxime (C₆H₅CH=NOH). ### Step 2: Dehydration with Phosphorus Pentoxide The next step involves the dehydration of the oxime (X) using phosphorus pentoxide (P₂O₅), which is a strong dehydrating agent. **Reaction:** \[ C_6H_5CH=NOH \xrightarrow{P_2O_5, Heat} C_6H_5CN \] **Product (Y):** The product formed here is benzyl cyanide (C₆H₅CN), which is a nitrile. ### Step 3: Acid Hydrolysis of Benzyl Cyanide The final step involves the acid hydrolysis of benzyl cyanide (Y) in the presence of water and acid. **Reaction:** \[ C_6H_5CN + H_2O \xrightarrow{H^+} C_6H_5COOH + NH_3 \] **Product (Z):** The product formed here is benzoic acid (C₆H₅COOH) and ammonia (NH₃). ### Summary of Products: - **(X)**: Benzaldehyde oxime (C₆H₅CH=NOH) - **(Y)**: Benzyl cyanide (C₆H₅CN) - **(Z)**: Benzoic acid (C₆H₅COOH) ### Final Answer: - (X) = Benzaldehyde oxime (C₆H₅CH=NOH) - (Y) = Benzyl cyanide (C₆H₅CN) - (Z) = Benzoic acid (C₆H₅COOH) ---
