Solution

The correct option is A $E t M g X$ and $H C H O$
Ethyl magnesium bromide reacts with formaldehyde to form an adduct which on hydrolysis gives 1-Propanol.

$C H_{3} C H_{2} M g B r + H C H O \to (C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} O M g B r) adduct \to C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} O H$

Hence, the correct answer is option (a).
