Expert Answer:
1. a pungent smelling liquid (p)smelling like wine is heated with concentrated sulpfuric acid
C2H5OH + H2SO4 ? C2H4 + HOH
p q
and another compound (q)is formed.
2. q when treated with an acid r forms S.R is naturally produced in the stomach of animals.
C2H4 + HCl ? C2H5Cl .
q r s
3.Compound S when treated with aqueous Potassium hydroxide forms p again.
C2H5Cl + KOH ? C2H5OH + KCl
p = C2H5OH .
q= C2H4.
r= HCl
s = C2H5Cl
