Geminal diols (compounds with two $-OH$ groups on the same carbon atom) are generally unstable. However,which of the following is stable?

Product $C$ is

The product formed in the given reaction sequence is:

After completion of the reactions $(I)$ and $(II)$,the organic compound$(s)$ in the reaction mixtures is (are):

$CaOCl_2 + H_2O \longrightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + X$
$X + CH_3CHO \longrightarrow Y$
$Y + Ca(OH)_2 \longrightarrow CHCl_3$
What is '$Y$'?

$A$ tertiary alcohol $H$ upon acid-catalysed dehydration gives a product $I$. Ozonolysis of $I$ leads to compounds $J$ and $K$. Compound $J$ upon reaction with $KOH$ gives benzyl alcohol and a compound $L$,whereas $K$ on reaction with $KOH$ gives only $M$.
$1.$ Compound $H$ is formed by the reaction of
$2.$ The structure of compound $I$ is
$3.$ The structures of compounds $J, K$ and $L$,respectively,are
$(A)$ $PhCOCH_3, PhCH_2 COCH_3$ and $PhCH_2 COO^{-} K^{+}$
$(B)$ $PhCHO, PhCH_2 CHO$ and $PhCOO^{-} K^{+}$
$(C)$ $PhCOCH_3, PhCH_2 CHO$ and $CH_3 COO^{-} K^{+}$
$(D)$ $PhCHO, PhCOCH_3$ and $PhCOO^{-} K^{+}$
Give the answer for questions $1, 2$ and $3.$
