Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Due to steric hindrance `I^(-)` attacks at the smaller alkyl group, i.e., `CH_(3)` group
`underset("Isopropyl methyl ether")((CH_(3))_(2)CH-O-CH_(3))+HI overset(Delta)to underset("Methyl iodide")(CH_(3)I)+underset("Isopropyl alcohol")((CH_(3))_(2)CHOH)`
