    Both \[C{{H}_{4}}\]and \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}\] can be prepared in one step by the reaction of

    A)  \[C{{H}_{3}}Br\]       

    B)         \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}OH\]

    C)         \[C{{H}_{3}}OH\]    

    D)         \[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    When \[C{{H}_{3}}Br\]reacts with \[LiAl{{H}_{4}}\] and \[Na,\] it gives \[C{{H}_{4}}\]and \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}\] both. \[C{{H}_{3}}Br\xrightarrow{LiAl{{H}_{4}}}\underset{Methane}{\mathop{C{{H}_{4}}+H-Br}}\,\] \[C{{H}_{3}}Br+2Na+BrC{{H}_{3}}\xrightarrow{{}}\]                 \[\underset{Ethane}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{3}}}}\,+2NaBr\]
