Correct answer: B

  1. For the reaction

xA→yBxA \to yBxA→yB

the rates of disappearance and appearance are related by stoichiometry:

−1xd[A]dt=1yd[B]dt-\frac{1}{x}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=\frac{1}{y}\frac{d[B]}{dt}−x1​dtd[A]​=y1​dtd[B]​

So,

−d[A]dt=xyd[B]dt-\frac{d[A]}{dt}=\frac{x}{y}\frac{d[B]}{dt}−dtd[A]​=yx​dtd[B]​

  1. The question gives:

log⁡10[−d[A]dt]=log⁡10[d[B]dt]+0.3010{\log_{10}}\left[-\frac{d[A]}{dt}\right]={\log_{10}}\left[\frac{d[B]}{dt}\right]+0.3010log10​[−dtd[A]​]=log10​[dtd[B]​]+0.3010

Using the log property,

log⁡10[−d[A]dt]−log⁡10[d[B]dt]=0.3010\log_{10}\left[-\frac{d[A]}{dt}\right]-\log_{10}\left[\frac{d[B]}{dt}\right]=0.3010log10​[−dtd[A]​]−log10​[dtd[B]​]=0.3010

log⁡10(−d[A]/dtd[B]/dt)=0.3010\log_{10}\left(\frac{-d[A]/dt}{d[B]/dt}\right)=0.3010log10​(d[B]/dt−d[A]/dt​)=0.3010

Since

0.3010=log⁡1020.3010=\log_{10}20.3010=log10​2

we get

−d[A]/dtd[B]/dt=2\frac{-d[A]/dt}{d[B]/dt}=2d[B]/dt−d[A]/dt​=2

Thus,

−d[A]dt=2d[B]dt-\frac{d[A]}{dt}=2\frac{d[B]}{dt}−dtd[A]​=2dtd[B]​

Comparing with

−d[A]dt=xyd[B]dt-\frac{d[A]}{dt}=\frac{x}{y}\frac{d[B]}{dt}−dtd[A]​=yx​dtd[B]​

we obtain

xy=2\frac{x}{y}=2yx​=2

So the stoichiometric ratio must be

x:y=2:1x:y=2:1x:y=2:1

  1. Now check the options.

Option A: n-Butane and Iso-butane

This is isomerization:

n-Butane→Iso-butane\text{n-Butane} \to \text{Iso-butane}n-Butane→Iso-butane

Stoichiometry is 1:11:11:1, not 2:12:12:1.

So, A is incorrect.

Option B: C2H4C_2H_4C2​H4​ and C4H8C_4H_8C4​H8​

Dimerization:

2C2H4→C4H82C_2H_4 \to C_4H_82C2​H4​→C4​H8​

Here x:y=2:1x:y=2:1x:y=2:1, which matches the condition.

So, B is correct.

Option C: C2H4C_2H_4C2​H4​ and C6H6C_6H_6C6​H6​

There is no simple reaction of the form

2C2H4→C6H62C_2H_4 \to C_6H_62C2​H4​→C6​H6​

and stoichiometry does not match the required 2:12:12:1 in a valid direct form.

So, C is incorrect.

Option D: N2O4N_2O_4N2​O4​ and NO2NO_2NO2​

Dissociation is:

N2O4→2NO2N_2O_4 \to 2NO_2N2​O4​→2NO2​

Here x:y=1:2x:y=1:2x:y=1:2, not 2:12:12:1.

So, D is incorrect.

  1. Therefore, the correct option is:

B\boxed{B}B​
