Solution

The correct option is B All of these

HVZ reaction can go on till there is replacable acidic hydrogen present in the $α$ group of the carboxylic acid.

$C H_{3} C O O H + B r_{2} P / H_{2} O - --- \to B r C H_{2} C O O H + H B r$

Since there are 3 alpha hydrogens so all 3 hydrogens are replaced by Br.

So, option D is correct.
