(i) $C H_{3} C H O A c e t a l d e h y d e + 4 H I r e d P - -- \to Δ C H_{3} . C H_{3} E t h a n e + H_{2} O + 2 I_{2}$

(ii) $(C H_{3} C O O)_{2} C a C a l c i u m a c e t a t e Δ - \to C H_{3} C O C H_{3} + C a C O_{3}$

(iii) $C_{2} H_{5} O N a S o d i u m e t h o x i d e + C_{2} H_{5} B r e t h y l b r o m i d e ⟶ C_{2} H_{5} O C_{2} H_{5} d i e t h y l e t h e r + N a B r$
