Solution

The correct option is A Li/NH3
Alkene can be produced from alkyne by controlled partial hydrogenation reduction.
This can be done by any of the following methods:
1. Reduction of alkyne in the presence of Lindlar's catalyst. It forms cis alkene.
2. Birch reduction: reduction of alkyne with Na/Li in liq. ammonia. It forms trans alkene.
