The formation of methyl chloride from the reaction of methane with chlorine is addition reaction.

The correct option is B

False

The reaction in which atoms combine with unsaturated carbon compounds to form saturated carbon compounds is called addition reaction. The reaction in which an atom or a group in a compound is replaced by another atom or a group is called a substitution reaction. During the formation of methyl chloride, a hydrogen atom of methane is replaced by a chlorine atom. Hence, the formation of methyl chloride from the reaction of methane with chlorine is a substitution reaction and not an addition reaction.
