Solution

The correct option is C Copper sulphate
Laboratory alcohol is unfit for consumption. Laboratory alcohol is deliberately coloured and made into a foul-smelling liquid to distinguish it from consumable alcohol. This is known as denaturation of alcohol.

Hence, the correct answer is option (b) and (c).
