Solution

The correct option is D CH2BrCH2Bralc.KOH−−−−CH2=CHBrNaNH2−−−−CHCH
Reaction:
CH2BrCH2Bralc.KOH−−−−CH2=CHBrNaNH2−−−−CHCH (ethyne)

In the reaction first β elimination reaction of the alkyl halide takes place to form the corresponding alkene. This alkene on reaction with sodamide forms corresponding alkyne.(As NaNH2 is strong base)

Option D is correct.
