When ethanal reactions with HCN and the organic product is hydrolyzed by aqueous acid, organic compound Y is formed
When propanal is heated under reflux with acidified potassium dichromate (VI), organic compound Z is formed.
What is the difference in relative molecular mass of compounds Y and Z ???

16
Y is CH3CH(OH)COOH
Z is CH3CH2COOH
Y is CH3CH(OH)COOH
Z is CH3CH2COOH
