Since the options are given, I am giving a general answer.

The correct answer is - Acetylene.

Acetylene (C2H2) is a hydrocarbon which is also the simplest alkyne. The colourless gas is used in the form of a stable solution while being used as fuels. Lamps that are used by hawkers use Acetylene gas as a source of light which produces very bright light.

These acetylene lamps are also called as Carbide lamps because the acetylene is formed by the reaction of water and Calcium carbide. The formed acetylene burns to give out bright light.
