C Correct answer
Explanation

Alcohol in original mixture = 25% of 136 ml = 34 ml. Total volume after adding water = 136 + 64 = 200 ml. Percentage of alcohol = (34/200) × 100 = 17%. When water is added to a solution, the amount of solute remains constant while total volume increases, decreasing concentration.
