Solution

The correct options are
B A is 1,2-dichloroethane
C B is Ethane
Addition of dihydrogen :

Alkene+H2Ni/Pt/Pd−−−−−Alkane+heat

When nickel is used as a catalyst for addition of dihydrogen, then the reaction is known as Sabatier-Senderens reaction.
So , B is ethane.

Addition of halogens:
Halogens like bromine and chlorine add up to alkene to form vicinal dihalides
CCl4 is the solvent.



Options (b) and (c) are correct.
