उत्तर २

When ethyl chloride is treated with aqueous KOH, it undergoes dehydrohalogenation, which eliminates hydrogen and halogen atoms from nearby carbon atoms, resulting in the production of an alkene.

\[\ce{\underset{Ethyl chloride}{CH3 - CH2 - Cl} + KOH (aq) ->[hydrolysis][\Delta] \underset{Ethyl alcohol}{CH3 - CH2 - OH} + KCl}\]
