Solution

The correct option is A To advertise his business
When the goodwill of a firm is sold after dissolution, a partner may carry on a business competing with that of the buyer and seller has the right to advertise his business. But he can not use the firm name and represent himself as carrying on the business of the firm because it may mislead the customer. And also seller can not solicit customer.
