Propan-2-ol
Explanation:
The carbonyl compound is ethanal, CH3MgX is a nucleophile.
Thus,C of CH3MgX will attack C of the carbonyl and the carbon chain now has 1 additional carbon (from 2 carbons to 3 carbons), where the C of the carbonyl is located in the middle.
Hydrolysis of the product will form propan-2-ol.
