#Ca(OCl)Cl and H_2O# is added to #C_2H_5OH# to get compound A.After that we add #HNO_3# in one pathway X to get a product B .We add #CH_3COCH_3# to A in another separate pathway Y to get product C.What is A,B and C?

#A=>"Chlorofom "CHCl_3#

#B=>"Chloropicrin "C Cl_3NO_2#

#C=>"Chloretone "CH_3C (OH)(C Cl_3)CH_3#

#CH_3CH_2OHstackrel(Ca(OCl)Cl+H_2O)->CHCl_3color(red)([A])+(HCOO)_2Ca+CaCl_2#

Path way #X#

#CHCl_3+HNO_3->C Cl_3NO_2color(red)([B])+H_2O#

Path way #Y#

#CHCl_3+CH_3COCH_3->CH_3C (OH)(C Cl_3)CH_3color(red)([C])+H_2O#
