`90 mL` of oxygen is required for complete combustion of unsaturated `20mL` gaseous hydrocarbon, hydrocarbon is ?

Answer» `("Volume of Hydrocarbon")/("Volume of" O_(2))=(2)/(3n)` (for Alkene)
`("Volume of Hydrocarbon")/("Volume of" O_(2))=(2)/(3n-1)` (for alkyne)
By putting the values in above fomulae we can find the hydrocarbon for which `n` is natural number. `
(20)/(90)=(2)/(3n) n=3` So hydrocarbon is Propene `[C_(3)H_(6)]`.
