Solution

The correct option is B C4H10 (n-butane)
Alkanes on reaction with AlCl3 produces isomers of the reacting alkane.
As CH4,C2H6,C3H8 do not have any isomers but C4H10 (nButnae) has a isomer (iso-propane).
So, when C4H10 (nButane) reacts with AlCl3, it will produce iso-propane.
Hence, Option "D" is the correct answer.
