Solution

The correct option is A

True


In the given reaction hexane is undergoing some chemical reaction to form ethane and butene. The reaction in which hydrocarbons with high molecular masses, on heating in the absence of air, form hydrocarbons with lower molecular masses is known as a thermal cracking reaction. However, the total number of carbon and hydrogen atoms present in the hydrocarbon with higher molecular mass will be equal to the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms of product present in total.
