Solution

The correct option is D CH2ClCH2OH and aq.NaHCO3
A molecule of hypochlorous acid (HOCl) adds to C=C double bond of ethylene to formCH2ClCH2OH (molecule M). Hydrolysis with aq NaHCO3 (reagent R) forms ethylene glycol.
H2C=CH2 ethylene HOCl−−CH2ClCH2OH molecule Maq.NaHCO3−−−−−−CH2OHCH2OH ethylene glycol
