Solution

The correct option is A 1.5-10%
1.5 - 10% ethyl alcohol is added to petrol for effective burning. Ethyl alcohol can be mixed with petroleum for effective burning. As the ethanol molecule contains oxygen, it allows the engine to more completely combust the fuel, resulting in fewer emissions and thereby checking the environmental pollution.
