Solution

The correct option is D $C H_{3} - C l + C H_{2} = C H_{2} \to C H_{4} + C H_{2} = C H C l$
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy through light or heat. The enthalpy change for such reactions is usually negative.

$C H_{3} - C l + C H_{2} = C H_{2} ⟶ C H_{4} + C H_{2} = C H - C l$

This reaction is not an exothermic reaction as it involves reaction of an alkene to chloromethyl which leads to formation of methane.

Because vinyl radical is unstable ( $C H_{2} = C H^{\cdot}$ )

No energy is released during this reaction.

Option D is correct.
