Solution

The correct option is D Ethane
Aluminium carbide reacts with 12 moles of water to form aluminium hydroxide and methane. methane then reacts with $C l_{2}$ in presence of light to form methyl chloride. methyl chloride reacts with sodium in ether to form ethane.

$A l_{4} C_{3} + 12 H_{2} O \to 4 A l (O H)_{3} + 3 C H_{4} (A) C l_{2} / h v - --- \to C H_{3} C l (B) N a + e t h e r - ----- \to C H_{3} C H_{3}$
ethane
So, answer is C.
