Explanation / Answer

Part -2

Hybridisation of all the carbon atoms present in both the structure are SP3 as each atom is forming 4 sigma bonds.

Part3:

Both the structures are stereoisomers, as they have one stereoentre in the form of carbon atom which is attached to 4 different atoms.

So halothane has 2 optically active isomers in the form of 'R' and 'S' isomer.

Hence option A is Right
