Solution
The correct option is DCH3CHO Given reaction is ozonolysis of alkene, Ozonolysis of alkenes involves the addition of ozone molecule to an alkene to form ozonide. Cleavage of ozonide by Zn−H2O to smaller oxidised molecules. completing the sequence of given reactions,
Thus 'B' is CH3CHO Hence (d) is correct answer.
