Answer:
Methyl halide gives methane by reduction and ethane as a result of Wurtz reaction.
\[\underset{\text{Methyl}\,\,\text{Iodide}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-I+2H}}\,\,\xrightarrow{Zn/2HCl}\underset{\text{Methane}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{4}}}}\,+HI\]
\[C{{H}_{3}}-I+2Na+IC{{H}_{3}}\,\,\xrightarrow{\text{Anhyd}\text{.}\,\text{ether}}\]\[\underset{\text{Ethane}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{3}}+2NaI}}\,\]
