Options

  1. AMethane
  2. BEthane
  3. CPropane
  4. DHBr

Correct answer

A. Methane

Step-by-step solution

The gas evolved on heating C H _ 3 MgBr in methanol is:

CH3OH{CH}_{3}OH having acidic HH so in CH3MgBr{CH}_{3}MgBr the CH3−{{CH}_{3}}^{-} will react as a base and form CH4{CH}_{4} by acid-base reaction.
