`20cm^(3)` of a hydrocarbon mixed with `66cm^(3)` of oxygen is exploded. After cooling the gaseous mixture, the volume becomes `56cm^(3)`. The volume of this mixture when shaken with `KOH` solution reduces to `16cm^(3)`. Determine the formula of the hydrocarbon. [all volumes are measured at the same temperature and pressure].
