that chemical has 2 functional groups, ester and alkene
Hydrolysis of ester occur by addition of acid (or alkaline) so they warmed sulfuric acid, the ester bond breaks. (forming carboxylic acid and alcohol)
then addition of hydrogen in presence of catalyst with open double bonds (alkene ) to make alkane.
I got that!! Thx!!
