Answer:
Decarboxylation : when a carboxylic acid is heated with soda lime at about 630 K, a molecule of CO2 is lost and alkane is formed. 2. Kolbe's eectrolytic method : When a concentrated aqueous solution of the sodium or potassium salt of a monocarboxlic acid is electrolyzed, an alkane is produced.
