Solution

The correct option is B Propene
When primary haloalkane containing β- hydrogen atom is heated with alc. KOH solution, then alkene is formed.
In this reaction, hydrogen is eliminated from βcarbon and the halogen is lost from αcarbon atom. As a result, an alkene is formed as a product.
Hence, option (a) is correct.
