A

`1:1:1 `

B

`1:16:2 `

C

`2:16:1 `

D

`1:4:1 `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Molar masses of gives gases
`{:(O _(2), H _(2), CH _(4)),( 32,2, 16):}`
At NTP 1 mol of each gas occupies equal volume (22.42), hence greater the number of moles greater will be the volume of the gas.
`therefore` Ratio of the volumes of gases will be 1:16:2.
