Consider the following sequence of reactions to give the major product (X)

P g of the major product (X) formed is reacted with $\ce{NaHCO3}$ solution to liberate a gas which occupied 11.2 dm $^3$ at STP.

P $=$ g.

(Given molar mass in g mol $^{-1}$ H : 1, C : 12, O : 16, Cl : 35.5)

We corrected a printing error in the original paper

Source printed “ $\ce{NaHCO3}$ soluion”.
