The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding LPG**: - LPG stands for Liquefied Petroleum Gas. It is a flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases. 2. **Components of LPG**: - The primary components of LPG include propane (C3H8), butane (C4H10), and isobutane (C4H10). 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - The question provides several options regarding the composition of LPG: - Option 1: Methane, Methane, Methane and Hydrogen - Option 2: Butane and Isobutane - Option 3: Ethane and Ethylene 4. **Identifying the Correct Option**: - From the knowledge of LPG's composition, we can conclude that the correct answer must include butane and isobutane. - Therefore, the correct option is **Option 2: Butane and Isobutane**. 5. **Conclusion**: - LPG is primarily a mixture of propane, butane, and isobutane. Among the given options, the one that accurately reflects this composition is Butane and Isobutane.
