Liquid hydrocarbons can be converted to a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons by
- Aoxidation
- Bcracking
- Cdistillation under reduced pressure
- Dhydrolysis
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
On cracking or pyrolysis, the hydrocarbon with higher molecular mass gives a mixture of hydrocarbons having lower molecular masses. Hence, liquid hydrocarbons can be converted into a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons. (Lower hydrocarbons exist in gaseous state while higher ones are in liquid state or solid state.)
