Solution

The correct option is C CH3CH2Cl
The molecule which contains sp3sp3 hybridization have all single bonds on carbon. This criteria is satisfied by ethane and ethyl chloride. Since, while forming a bond with chlorine, p orbitals of chlorine combine with sp3 hybridized orbital of carbon, hence, ethyl chloride satisfies both the criteria.
