An organic compound C(molecular formula C2 H4 O2) reacts with sodium metal to form a compound B and evolves a gas which burns with a pop sound.Compound C on treatment with an alcohol A in presence of an acid forms a sweet smelling compound S(molecular formula C4 H8 O2).On addition of sodium hydroxide to C it also gives B and water.S on treatment with Sodium Hydroxide solution gives back B and A. Identify A,B,C and and write chemical equation for all the four reactions involved. |
