The formula of a gaseous hydrocarbon which requires \(6\) times of its own volume of \(O _{2}\) for complete oxidation and produces \(4\) times its own volume of \(CO _{2}\) is \(C _{ x } H _{ y }\). The value of \(y\) is ...... .

  1. A \(13\)
  2. B \(10\)
  3. C \(8\)
  4. D \(5\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Combustion \(rx ^{ n }:\) \(C _{ x } H _{ y ( g )}+\left( x +\frac{ y }{4}\right) O _{2}( g ) \rightarrow \)\(x CO _{2}( g )+\frac{ y }{2} H _{2} O (\ell)\) \(V\,\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad6V\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad-\)…
