Solution
The correct option is A Hydrogen gas Crude oil is a liquid consisting of hydrocarbons found beneath the earth surface. Its refining yields several refined and more useful forms like petrol, diesel, kerosene etc. All of them are hydrocarbons with different molecular weights. Hydrogen is the odd one out as it is an element and not among the end products of refining.
