Total number of structurally isomeric ethers with molecular formula ${\mathrm{C}}_5{\mathrm{H}}_{12}\mathrm{O}$:

Compound $\text{'}\mathrm{A}\text{'}$ (molecular formula ${\mathrm{C}}_3{\mathrm{H}}_8\mathrm{O}$ ) is treated with acidified potassium dichromate to form a product $\text{'}\mathrm{B}\text{'}$ (molecular formula ${\mathrm{C}}_3{\mathrm{H}}_6\mathrm{O}$ ). $\text{'}\mathrm{B}\text{'}$ forms a shining silver mirror on warming with ammoniacal ${\mathrm{AgNO}}_3$. $\text{'}\mathrm{B}\text{'}$, when treated with an aqueous solution of ${\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{NCONHNH}}_2$, $\mathrm{HCl}$, and sodium acetate, gives a product $\text{'}\mathrm{C}\text{'}$. Identify the structure of  $\text{'}\mathrm{C}\text{'}$.

The action of bromine water (excess) on salicylic acid results in the formation of:

The product of the reaction ${\mathrm{Ph}}_2\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{O}\underset{{\mathrm{H}}_3{\mathrm{O}}^{\oplus }}{\overset{{\mathrm{LiAID}}_4}{\to }}$ is

The product of above reaction is:

The product is:

Which of the following on oxidation gives ethyl methyl ketone?

The compound $\text{'}\mathrm{X}\text{'}\left({\mathrm{C}}_3{\mathrm{H}}_8\mathrm{O}\right)$ on oxidation with ${\mathrm{K}}_2{\mathrm{Cr}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_7$ gives compound $\text{'}\mathrm{Y}\text{'}\left({\mathrm{C}}_3{\mathrm{H}}_6\mathrm{O}\right)$. What is compound $\mathrm{X}$?
