Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{R}-\mathrm{CO}-\mathrm{NH}_2+4[\mathrm{H}] \stackrel{\mathrm{LiA1H}_4}{\longrightarrow}:\) Mendius reduction
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation

Mendius reduction (Incorrect)
By using \(\mathrm{Na} / \mathrm{EtOH}\), it is known as Mendius reduction.
