Indane gas is a mixture of butane and propane. It is liquefied petroleum Gas (LPG) used for cooking in house-holds.
A.Butane and hydrogen.
B.Butane and oxygen.
C.Butane and propane.
D.Methane and oxygen.
Solution
We know that Liquefied petroleum gas is a flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gas, used as a fuel in heating appliances, cooking equipment etc. It is increasingly used as an aerosol propellant and a refrigerant, replacing chlorofluorocarbon in an effort to reduce damage to the ozone layer.
Complete answer:
LPG gas comes from oil and gas wells, as it is a fossil fuel. LPG is a mixture of fossil fuel. LPG is a mixture of flammable hydrocarbon gases that include propane, butane, isobutene and mixtures of the three LPG gases.
LPG is made up of carbon and hydrogen atoms forming propane and butane whilst natural gas is made up of lighter methane, the simplest carbon and hydrogen molecule. LPG is made up of a group of flammable hydrocarbons gases that are liquefied through pressurization and commonly used as fuel. Natural gas is liquefied cryogenically. LPG is stored in steel vessels ranging from small BBQ gas bottles to larger gas cylinders and tanks. They are commonly used for generating heat for home heating, hot water, cooking including boilers.
Indane gas is a mixture of butane and propane. It is liquefied petroleum Gas(LPG) used for cooking in house-holds.
Therefore the correct answer is option C.
Note:
Remember that cryogenically, LPG is stored in steel vessels ranging from small BBQ gas bottles to larger gas cylinders and tanks. They are commonly used for generating heat for home heating, hot water, cooking including boilers.
