Chapter 9, Problem 9.61P

Using your reaction roadmap as a guide, show how to convert propane into butyronitrile. You must use propane and sodium cyanide as the source of all of the carbon atoms in the butyronitrile product. Show all reagents and all molecules synthesized along the way.

Which carbocation is more stable?
Are the products of the given reaction correct?  Why or why not?
The question below asks why the products shown are NOT the correct products.  I asked this already, and the person explained why those are the correct products, as opposed to what we would think should be the correct products.  That's the opposite of what the question was asking.  Why are they not the correct products? A reaction mechanism for how we arrive at the correct products is requested ("using key intermediates").  In other words, why is HCl added to the terminal alkene rather than the internal alkene?
