My school please the choosen answer is wrong,
🤲
C2H4 being Ethene is not in a substitution reaction with the halogens but rather it is an addition reaction
CH2=CH2+Cl2-->CH2ClCH2Cl
which is 1,2-dichloroethane

Therefore C is legitimately correct

🤲

Myschool unsaturated hydrocarbons undergo addition reaction not the other way around

listen what is in the question is C2H6 which is ethane, and all alkane undergo substitution reaction

The answer should be Addition Reaction, since the That is an Alkene not Alkane. Thanks

The alkanes undergo substitutional reaction with halogens because of their saturated nature. So the answer should be A not C
