Predict the products in the following reactions :

$\displaystyle \mathrm{CH_3MgBr} + \mathrm{CO_2} \xrightarrow{\mathrm{H_3O^+}}$

$\displaystyle \mathrm{CH_3CN} \xrightarrow[\text{(b) } \mathrm{H_2O}]{\text{(a) DIBAL-H}}$

$\displaystyle \xrightarrow[\Delta]{\mathrm{H_3O^+}}$

OR(b) Arrange the following compounds in increasing order of their property as indicated :

$\displaystyle \mathrm{CH_3CHO}$, $\displaystyle \mathrm{CH_3CH_2CHO}$, $\displaystyle \mathrm{CH_3}{-}\overset{\textstyle\mathrm{O}}{\overset{\textstyle\|}{\mathrm{C}}}{-}\mathrm{CH_2}{-}\mathrm{CH_3}$, $\displaystyle \mathrm{CH_3}{-}\overset{\textstyle\mathrm{O}}{\overset{\textstyle\|}{\mathrm{C}}}{-}\mathrm{CH_3}$ (Reactivity towards HCN)
