Solution

The correct option is B Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is true, statement-2 is a correct explanation for statement-1
This is an example of anti addition to preferentially obtain a trans alkene.

Thus, when 2-butyne is reduced with sodium in liq ammonia, trans-2-butene is obtained. The triple bond is selectively reduced to double bond.

Thus, both the statements are correct and the statement 2 is the correct explanation of statement 1.
