Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
In this reaction, we will have a hydride transfer to the carbon of the carbonyl group, moving the electrons of the double bond towards the oxygen producing a negative charge. The double bond is then regenerated by removing the chlorine atom from the molecule, producing an aldehyde.
Then, another molecule the LiAlH4 transfers another hydride to the carbon of the carbonyl group, again producing a negative charge on the oxygen. Finally, the hydrogen is protonated producing a primary alcohol.
See figure 1
