Solution

The correct option is C
$C_{6} H_{5} C H_{2} C l + N H_{3} \to C_{6} H_{2} C H_{2} N H_{2}$

Answer: (c)

Ammonolysis is a type of chemical reaction in which ammonia is used as a reactant.
When an alkyl or benzyl halide is allowed to react with an ethanolic solution of ammonia, it undergoes a nucleophilic substitution reaction in which the halogen atom is replaced by an amino $(- N H_{2})$ group. This is called ammonolysis reaction.
Hence, option is the correct answer.
$C_{6} H_{5} C H_{2} C l + N H_{3} C_{6} H_{5} C H_{2} N H_{2}$
