  • A
    Figure
  • B
    $\mathrm{ClCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{Cl} \underset{\text { heat }}{\stackrel{\mathrm{OH}^{-}}{\longrightarrow}}$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $\mathrm{HO}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{OCH}_3 \underset{\text { heat }}{\stackrel{\text { OH}^{-}}{\longrightarrow}}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{CH}_2=\mathrm{CH}_2 \stackrel{\text { alkaline }}{\mathrm{KMnO}_4}$

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