Solution

The correct option is C H2/Lindlar's catalyst
Lindlar catalyst is used for the cis- hydrogenation of an alkyne to an alkene. Lindlar catalyst is a heterogeneous catalyst that consists of palladium deposited on calcium carbonate which is then poisoned with various forms of lead or sulphur.
Here Lindlar catalyst/H2 is used for the conversion of 2-heptyne to cis-2-heptene.
