Solution

The correct option is D $H_{2} O + {C O}_{2}$
Complete oxidation of a hydrocarbon is represented as:

$C_{x} H_{2 y} + (\frac{2 x + y}{2}) O_{2} \to x C O_{2} + y H_{2} O$

$C H_{4} Methane + 2 O_{2} \to C O_{2} + 2 H_{2} O$

$C_{2} H_{4} Ethane + 3 O_{2} \to 2 C O_{2} + 2 H_{2} O$

All hydrocarbons saturated or unsaturated on complete combustion always produce $C O_{2}$ and $H_{2} O$ .

Hence, option $D$ is correct.
