Heya User,

Here's your answer
______________________

Solution:

15 ml is CO2
=> [ 15/7.5 = 2 atoms of C per molecule ]

13.5 ml is O2 

So, 22.5 ml of O2 was used
=> [ 7.5 ml goes into water, so 7.5 ml of H2 ]

Hence, the gas is Ethyne is “C2H2”.

{ Sorry, but I am not sure about my given answer }
