Which of the following has maximum standard enthalpy of combustion per gram?A. `C_(3) H_(8)`B. `C_(4) H_(10)`C. `C_(2) H_(4)`D. `C_(2) H_(2)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
During combustion. `C` is oxidized to `CO_(2)` and `H` is oxidized to `H_(2) O`. Thus, saturated hydrocarbons have higher caloriffic values than the corresponding unsaturated hydrocarbons. More the number of `C` and `H` atoms, greater is the calorific value.
