MCQ
$0.5\,L$ of gaseous hydrocarbon when burnt in excess of $O_2$ gave $3.5\,L$ of $CO_2$ and $4\,L$ of water vapours under same conditions. Molecular formula of the hydrocarbon will be
  • A
    $C_4H_8$
  • B
    $C_4H_{10}$
  • $C_7H_{16}$
  • D
    $C_5H_{12}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$C_7H_{16}$
c
$\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{C}}: \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{H}}=3.5:(4 \times 2)$

$=7: 16$

$\mathrm{MF}=\left(\mathrm{C}_{7} \mathrm{H}_{16}\right)_{\mathrm{x}}$

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A$ : Boric acid is a weak acid

Reason $R$ : Boric acid is not able to release $H ^{+}$ion on its own. It receives $OH ^{-}$ion from water and releases $H ^{+}$ion.
