Solution

The correct option is C Kerosene
Jet-A powers modern commercial airliners and is a mix of extremely refined kerosene and burns at temperatures at or above 49 °C . Kerosene-based fuel has a much higher ignition temperature than gasoline-based fuel, meaning that it requires a significantly higher temperature to ignite. Kerosene on burning provides a large amount of energy and is hence used as fuel in jet crafts.
