Concept introduction:
Halo
Halo alkanes can contain more than one type of halogen.
Carboxylic acids can be prepared from alkyl halide in different ways. One such method is mentioned here,
When alkyl halide react with magnesium in the presence of diethyl ether to form Grignard reagent and it is treated with dry ice and followed by hydrolysis with dilute acid give

What reaction occurs when a strong base is added to a carboxylic acid?
Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Resolve the reactions.
Hydration of aldehydes and ketones can be catalyzed by acid
or base. Bases catalyze hydration by:
protonating the carbonyl oxygen
making the carbonyl group more electrophilic
employing hydroxide ion, which is a better nucleophile than water
making the carbonyl group less electrophilic
shifting the equilibrium position of the reaction to favor products
