c.

Step by step solution

01

Ozonolysis of alkene

It is done by ozone, followed by Zn,H2O. It involves the formation of aldehyde and ketone by breaking ozonide.

02

Identification of products in a, b and c

a. The reaction of squalene with O3, followed by Zn, H2O is shown below:

Product formation in a

b. The reaction of linolenic acid with O3, followed by Zn, H2O is shown below:
