MCQ
For complete combustion of $10\, L$ of alkane volume of oxygen required is $50\, L$ Then identify alkane
  • A
    $C_3H_6$
  • $C_3H_8$
  • C
    $C_4H_{10}$
  • D
    $C_2H_6$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$C_3H_8$
b
Combustion reaction of Alkane

$\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{H}_{2 \mathrm{n}+2}+\left(\frac{3 \mathrm{n}+1}{2}\right) \mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{nCO}_{2}+(\mathrm{n}+1) \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$

$\frac{\text { Volume of Alkane }}{\text { Volume of } \mathrm{O}_{2}}=\frac{\frac{1}{3 \mathrm{n}+1}}{2}=\frac{2}{3 \mathrm{n}+1}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{10}{50}=\frac{2}{3 n+1} \Rightarrow 3 n+1=10 \Rightarrow $ $\boxed{n = 3}$

$\therefore $ Alkane is $C_3H_8$
