, methane is treated with chlorine gas in the presence of ultraviolet light to form chloromethane. Chloro methane is treated with sodium metal and dry ether to form the product ethane. This process is also called Wurtz synthesis.
Chemical reactions are as follows:
CH
4
+Cl
2
→CH

Cl+HCl (in presence of sunlight) this is chlorination
2CH
3
Cl+Na→C
2
H

(in presence of dry ether) this is wurtz reaction.
So, option C is correct
