Compound ' A ' on heating with sodalime gives propane. Identify the compound 'A'.

• A

  $\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{OH}$
• B

  $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CO}_2 \mathrm{Na}$
• Correct answer
  C

  $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CO}_2 \mathrm{Na}$
• D

  
  

Solution

$\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{NaOH} \xrightarrow[\Delta]{\mathrm{CaO}} \mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_3$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
