Compound X is a six carbon compound. When it is burnt, light is generated. Here, the colour of the flame is yellow because of the presence of carbon particles. Compound X cannot be A. C6H12 B. C6H14 C. C6H6 D. C6H10

Answer»

Only unsaturated carbon compounds produce yellow (and sooty) flame. C6H14 is a saturated compound (hexane) and it will always produce clean blue flame (not yellow) when burnt in sufficient amount of oxygen.
