Solution

The correct option is A 5.37/1
According to Avogadro's law: Equal volumes of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules/moles.

Lets consider equal volumes are combusted in such a manner that 1 mole of each is combusted.
$Δ H$ for 1 mole of the reactant is given in the question.
$∴$ Using the given data,
$\frac{△ H_{c o m b} (C_{2} H_{2})}{△ H_{c o m b} (H_{2})} = \frac{- 1300}{- 241.8}$ = $\frac{5.376}{1}$
