An alkene $A$ on reaction with $O_{3}$ and $Zn-H_{2}O$ gives propanone and ethanal in equimolar ratio. Addition of $HCl$ to alkene $A$ gives $B$ as the major product. The structure of product $B$ is:

  • A
    $Cl-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-C(CH_{3})_{2}-CH_{3}$
  • B
    $CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH(CH_{2}Cl)-CH_{3}$
  • C
    $CH_{3}-CH_{2}-C(Cl)(CH_{3})_{2}$
  • D
    $CH_{3}-CH(Cl)-CH(CH_{3})_{2}$
