Solution

The correct option is B $b d e c f a$
Steps for the conversion of calcium carbide to methyl alcohol:
(b) Hydrolysis
(d) Reaction with $H a {S O}_{4} / H_{2} {S O}_{4}$
(e) Reaction with $H g {S O}_{4}$
(c) Reaction with soda lime
(f) Reaction with $P {C l}_{5}$
(a) Reaction with aqueous $K O H$
$C a C_{2} + 2 H_{2} O \to C_{2} H_{2} + C a (O H)_{2} \Rightarrow C_{2} H_{2} + H_{2} S O_{4} / H g S O_{4} \to C H_{3} C H O \Rightarrow C H_{3} C H O + H_{2} S O_{4} \to C H_{3} C O O H \Rightarrow C H_{3} C O O H + N a O H + C a O \to C H_{3} C O O N a \Rightarrow C H_{3} C O O N a + P C l_{5} \to C H_{3} C l \Rightarrow C H_{3} C l + K O H \to C H_{3} O H$
