Solution

The correct option is A
True

Although, violently disastrously explosive, Fluorination of methane can be controlled in a laboratory setup by:

(i) Heavily diluting both $C H_{4}$ and $F_{2}$ gases with an inert gas like He (it should be light)

(ii) A reactor setup with a Copper-shot or similar arrangement to quickly withdraw or dissipate the heat evolved in the (chain) reaction
