(D) In heterolytic bond fission,the shared pair of electrons is taken away by one of the bonded atoms. For the $C-Cl$ bond,since chlorine is more electronegative than carbon,it takes both electrons,resulting in the formation of a carbocation $(C^+)$ and a chloride ion $(Cl^-)$. Thus,it produces one cation and one anion. The reaction is: $C-Cl \xrightarrow{\text{Heterolysis}} C^+ + Cl^-$.
