See Alcohol have high tendency to reach with metals. So ethyl alcohol C2H5OH (A) reacts with Na first of all to form Sodium Ethanoate. C2H5ONa (B) .

Now A ie C2H5OH with PCl5 reaction gives C2H5Cl. (C)

Now B and C ie C2H5ONa and C2H5Cl together react to form diethyl ether which is true as per the question.

So the correct option as per the question is D option.

Best wishes. Thank you.
