b) Alkane contains only Carbon and Hydrogen and there are single bonds

between atoms. Simplest alkane is methane CH4.

c) An alkene has one double bond between Carbon atoms. Simplest

alkene is ethene H2C=CH2.

How many liters of water vapor can be produced if 13.3 liters of methane gas (CH4) are combusted, if all measurements are taken

Pie

To get the number of liters of water vapor produced from the combustion of methane gas, we just need the stoichiometric ratio of water to methane which is 2:1. So the number of liters of water vapor from 13.3 liters of methane is 26.6 liters.
