Solution

The correct option is C C2H5OH+NaCl
Alkyl halides can be obtained by the following methods.
(A) Groove's method in which an alcohol reacts with HX in presence of anhydrous zinc chloride.
CH3CH2OH+HXanhyd−−−ZnCl2CH3CH2Cl+H2O .

(B) By the reaction of an alkane / alkene with thionyl chloride.
CH2=CHCH3SOCl2−−−KCH2=CHCH2Cl+SO2+HCl.

(D) By Borodine-Hunsdiecker reaction.
CH3COOAg+Br2/CCl4CH3Br+CO2+AgBr
However the alkyl halide cannot be prepared by the reaction of alkene with NaCl.

C2H4+NaClNo reaction
