Solution

The correct option is B Q is formed due to nucleophillic substitution reaction

The major product of this reaction is $2 -$ methyl propene beacuse soduim ethoxide is a strong nucleophile as well as a strong base. This elimination reaction predominates over substitution.

Here substitution occurs due to the primary substrate $C_{2} H_{5} C l$ .
