Answer»

acetone
methane
acetaldehyde
ethyl alcohol

Solution :`underset("Methyl bromide")(CH_(3)-Br) underset(-KBr)OVERSET(KCN)to underset("ACETONITRILE (A)")(CH_(3)-CN) underset(("Hydrolysis"))overset(H_(3)O^(+))to underset("ACETIC acid (B)")(CH_(3)COOH) underset(("Reduction"))overset(LiAlH_(4)//ether)to underset("Ethyl alcohol (C)")(CH_(3)CH_(2)OH)`
