Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) CCl

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Step 1: \( \mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}_2 + \mathrm{HBr} \) (peroxide) \( \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_2\mathrm{Br} \) (A) Step 2: \( \mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_2\mathrm{Br} + \mathrm{KOH} \) (aq)…
