Answer : Option A
Explanation :
Denatured alcohol is ethanol that has additives to make it undrinkable (poisonous), to discourage recreational consumption. Different additives are used to make it difficult to use distillation or other simple processes to reverse the denaturation. Methanol is commonly used both because its boiling point is close to that of ethanol and because it is toxic.
