Detailed Solution

  • The chemical formula of ethyl amine is C2H5NH2 which is a primary amine. 
  • Ethyl amine when treated with sodium metal forms C2H5NH-Na+along with H+ion. Here sodium metal acts as a base and removes an acidic hydrogen from the ethyl amine thus forming C2H5NH-Na+. The reaction equation is as follows,

C2H5NH2+NaC2H5NH-Na++1/2H2

Hence, the gas evolved during this reaction is H2gas.

Therefore, option (C) is correct.
