Compound $(\mathrm{X})$ is subjected to the sequence of reactions as shown above. Molar mass of the major product $(\mathrm{Y})$ formed is $\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{g} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$.
(Given molar mass in $\mathrm{g} \mathrm{mol}^{-1} \mathrm{C}: 12, \mathrm{H}: 1, \mathrm{O}: 16$ )
An organic compound “x” where molar ratio of C, O and H are equal, on treatment with 50% KOH under reflux followed by acidification produced “y”. The most likely structure of “y” is:
[Molar mass of ‘x’ is 58 g mol−1]
A molecule (X) with following structure under mild acidic condition is hydrolysed to produce (Y) and (Z). Identify the correct statements about (Y) and (Z).

A. Both (Y) and (Z) have same molar mass.
B. (Y) and (Z) can be distinguished from each other by NaHCO$_3$.
C. (Y) and (Z) react with HCN with same rates.
D. (Y) and (Z) undergo addition reaction with 2,4-DNP.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
