Two methods convert an alkyl halide to a carboxylic acid having onemore carbon atom. Depending on the structure of the alkyl halide, one or both of thesemethods may be employed. For each alkyl halide, write out a stepwisesequence that converts it to a carboxylic acid with one more carbonatom. If both methods work, draw both routes. If one method cannot be used, state why it can't.
