10ml of a gaseous hydrocarbon on combustion gives 40ml of `CO_(2)` and 50ml of `H_(2)O` vapour under the same conditions. The hydrocarbon is

A

`C_(4)H_(6)`

B

`C_(6)H_(10)`

C

`C_(4)H_(8)`

D

`C_(4)H_(10)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`C_(x)H_(y)rarrxCO_(2)+(y)/(2)H_(2)O`
`10rarr40rarr50`
`impliesx=4impliesy=10`
