Solution

The correct option is D $C H_{3} C H_{3}$
$C H_{3} O H + C O C O / R h - ---------- \to (H i g h P r e s s u r e) C H_{3} C O O H      C o m p o u n d A$
Alcohol with carbon monoxide in presence of $C O / R h$ gives carboxylic Acid.
$C H_{3} C O O H R e d P + H I - -------- \to C H_{3} - C H_{3}$
$R e d P + H I$ is areducing agent and reduces carboxylic acid into hydrocarbons.
