Solution

The correct option is A CH4+ClCH3HCl
Among the given reactions
˙CH3+˙CH3CH3CH3 has zero activation energy.
All the other reactions are following a free radial which needs energy in the form U.V light which is high activation energy.
Where as in the above reaction the free radicals are bonded together by lowering their energy thus by increasing the stability.
So, the reaction
˙CH3+˙CH3CH3CH3 has zero activation energy.
