When bromopropane reacts with aq. KOH, then it will forms propanol and when it reacts with alc. KOH then it will forms Propene

Aq kOH is alkaline in nature so it gives hydroxide ion which is a nucleophile to replace halide(bromide in this case) and form alcohols. Alcholic KOH produces base which is stronger than OH ion,so here it brings about elimination reaction. So with Aq KOH alcohols are formed & the reaction is nucleophilic...

Aq. KOH gives Propan-1-ol and Al alcoho KOH gives Propene

Its nucleophile substition reaction whr OH replace Br and formed propan-1-ol plus KBr in case of aqueous mediem Bt in alcoholic KOH gives elimination reaction to give propene

How would you explain the lower atomic radius of Ga as compared to Al?
Ga is present in 3rd period after the d-block in the periodic table, In this due to poor shielding effect of d electron effective nuclear charge increases that pull outershell electron more strongly hence has smaller size.
