Q. Identify the final product (Z) in the following sequence of reactions.
$M e_{2} C = O + H CN \to (X) H_{3} O^{+} (Y) H_{2} S O_{4} (Z)$

$(C H_{3})_{2} C (O H) COO H$

$C H_{2} = C (C H_{3}) COO H$

$H OC H_{2} C H (C H_{3}) COO H$

$C H_{3} C H = C H COO H$

Q. Identify the final product (Z) in the following sequence of reactions. Me2​C=O+HCN→(X)H3​O+​(Y)H2​SO4​​(Z)

(CH3​)2​C(OH)COOH

CH2​=C(CH3​)COOH

HOCH2​CH(CH3​)COOH

CH3​CH=CHCOOH
