Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In Wacker process, when mixture of propane and air is passed through mixture of Pd and `CuCl_2` at high pressure, acetone is formed.
`Pd + CuCl_2 to PdCl_2 + 2CuCl`
`4CuCl + HCl + O_2 to to 4CuCl_2 + 2H_2O`
`CH_2CH = CH_2 + PdCl_2 + H_2O to C to H_2COCH_3 + Pd + 2HCl` propene
