Since it reacts with Na2CO3 to form CO2. The reaction is Acid + Metal Carbonate, so we know that it is a carboxylic acid.
Also, since it reacts with bromine to turn it colourless. The compound has a carbon-carbon double bond.
The answer hence should be D.
But if you count the no. of carbon and hyrogen atoms acc. to formula, it doesnt make sense.Why?

I was opting for carboxylic acid. But how are we supposed to choose our answer if the carboxylic acid formula is not right? I mean banda check karta ha?
