A 20 mL mixture of CO, CH4, and Helium (...

A 20 mL mixture of CO, `CH_4`, and Helium (He) gases is exploded by an electric discharge at room temperature with excess of oxygen. The volume contraction is found to be 13 mL. A further contraction of 14 mL occurs when the residual gas is treated wityh KOH solution. Find out the composition of the gaseous mixture in terms of volume percentage.
