AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Gobar Gas**: Gobar gas, also known as biogas, is produced from the anaerobic digestion of organic matter, particularly animal dung (gobar) and other biodegradable materials. 2. **Composition of Gobar Gas**: The main components of gobar gas include methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), and small amounts of other gases. Methane is the primary component that gives it its fuel properties. 3. **Properties of Gobar Gas**: - It is flammable and can be used as a fuel for cooking and lighting. - It has a high calorific value, which means it can produce a significant amount of energy when burned. 4. **Evaluating the Options**: - **Option 1**: "Full smelling gas" - This is incorrect as gobar gas has a characteristic smell due to impurities, but it is not described as "full smelling." - **Option 2**: "Sweet smelling gas" - This is also incorrect; gobar gas does not have a sweet smell. - **Option 3**: "Having high calorific value" - This is correct; gobar gas is known for its high calorific value, making it an efficient fuel. - **Option 4**: "Useless" - This is incorrect; gobar gas is very useful as a renewable energy source. 5. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis of the options, the correct answer is that gobar gas is "having high calorific value." **Final Answer**: Gobar gas is having high calorific value. ---
