Solution
The correct option is C
In Wurtz reaction, alkane is prepared by reducing alkyl halide using Na in dry ether. It is a coupling reaction where two alkyl group will combine to form higher alkanes.
The free radical formed in the reaction undergoes delocalisation to form two structures. Both the form will combine with each other and with themselves to form the products.
Thus, (a), (b) and (c) are the possible products of the given reaction.
