The correct answers are:
$\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CHO}$ on reaction with HCN gives racemic mixture, $\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{NOH}$ shows geometrical isomerism
These are cis and trans isomers not enantiomers (Thus, false).
(b) $CH_{3}CHO$ on reaction with HCN gives racemic mixture of cyanohydrin (Thus, true).
(b) $CH_{3}CHO$ on reaction with HCN gives racemic mixture of cyanohydrin (Thus, true).
