Solution

The correct option is C (A)CH3Cl,(B)C6H5COOH,(C)C6H5COONa,(D)NaOH+CaO
The first reaction is Friedel-crafts reaction and the product is toluene, therefore A is CH3Cl.

C6H6CH3Cl−−−AlCl3C6H5CH3

Toluene, on oxidation forms benzoic acid (B).
C6H5CH3oxidation−−−−C6H5COOH

Benzoic acid, on further reaction with NaOH forms sodium benzoate (C).
C6H5COOHNaOH−−−C6H5COONaSodium benzoate

To convert sodium benzoate in benzene, soda lime (D) can be used as reagent.
C6H5COONaNaOH+CaO−−−−−−−Na2CO3C6H6

Hence, C is correct answer.
