Solution

The correct option is C propane
An unsaturated hydrocarbon is converted to a saturated hydrocarbon by the addition of hydrogen atoms in the presence of nickel catalyst.

The hydrogen atoms are added to the carbon atoms having a double bond or a triple bond between them.

For example, prop-1-ene is converted to propane as shown below.
CH3CH=CH2(g) + H2(g) Ni CH3CH2CH3(g) Prop1ene Hydrogen Propane
