An orange precipitate formed when compound P with molecular formula C3H6O reacts with reagent AA. When P is heated with reagent BB, the silver mirror is formed. Compound P also decolourized the purple colour of acidified KMnO4. i. Deduce structure P and write equations from the reactions above. ii. State reagents AA and BB are used above. iii. Give the IUPAC name of structural P predicted. iv. Upon treatment of P with acidified potassium cyanide, compound R is formed and Q is produced when P is treated with acidified water. Suggest structure Q and R
