Hey

--> C2H5OH --> Ethanol ... This reacts with sodium to produce Sodium ethoxide with Hydrogen...

--> CH3COOH --> Ethanoic Acid ... reacts with Metal to produce Hydrogen ( Metallic property.. any metal react with Acid to produce Metallic compound + Hydrogen ... except exceptions )

--> CH3OH --> Again an alcohol ( methanol ) also produces H2 on reaction with Sodium Metal

--> Propone is the only Compound that reacts with sodium and not produces H2 ✓✓✓

Hope this helps ^_^
