An organic compound 'A' on treatment with ethyl alcohol gives a carboxylic acid 'B' and compound 'C'. Hydrolysis of 'C' under acidic conditions gives 'B' and 'D'. Oxidation of'D ' with KMnO_(4) also gives'B' . 'B' on heating withCa(OH)_(2) gives'E' (C_(3)H_(6)O). E does not give Tollen 's test and does not reduce Fehling 's solution but form a 2,4- dinitrophenyl hydrazone . How many carbon are present inproduct (E ).

1.	An organic compound 'A' on treatment with ethyl alcohol gives a carboxylic acid 'B' and compound 'C'. Hydrolysis of 'C' under acidic conditions gives 'B' and 'D'. Oxidation of'D ' with KMnO_(4) also gives'B' . 'B' on heating withCa(OH)_(2) gives'E' (C_(3)H_(6)O). E does not give Tollen 's test and does not reduce Fehling 's solution but form a 2,4- dinitrophenyl hydrazone . How many carbon are present inproduct (E ).
Answer» SOLUTION :(3-carbon)
