Match the List-$I$ with List-$II$

List-$I$ (Chloro derivative) List-$II$ (Example)

$A$. Vinyl chloride $I$. $CH_2=CH-CH_2Cl$

$B$. Benzyl chloride $II$. $CH_3-CH(Cl)CH_3$

$C$. Alkyl chloride $III$. $CH_2=CHCl$

$D$. Allyl chloride $IV$. $C_6H_5CH_2Cl$

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

List-$I$ (Chloro derivative)	List-$II$ (Example)
$A$. Vinyl chloride	$I$. $CH_2=CH-CH_2Cl$
$B$. Benzyl chloride	$II$. $CH_3-CH(Cl)CH_3$
$C$. Alkyl chloride	$III$. $CH_2=CHCl$
$D$. Allyl chloride	$IV$. $C_6H_5CH_2Cl$
