    I thought it went a lot better than January! Some really nice questions, but I know I messed a few up and dropped some pretty simple marks But I definitely think Ive improved a lot upon last time which is a relief. How did you get on?

    Please help me with this question!!

    15cm3 of a gaseous hydrocarbon at 100degrees wa mixed with exess oxygen and exploded. Cooling the products caused a reduction in the volume equivalent to 30cm3 at the orginal temperature. A further reduction of 30cm3 occured on exposure to conc. alkali.

    What is the formula of the hydrocarbon??
