Answer:
x is CO2
y is H2O
Explanation:
An organic compound that contains carbon and hydrogen is called a hydrocarbon.
When a hydrocarbon is burnt in air (combustion) only two products are obtained; carbon dioxide and water. The carbon dioxide comes from the carbon component of the molecule while the water comes from the hydrogen component of the molecule.
Therefore, for a hydrocarbon CxHy we obtain; xCO2 and (x + 1)H2O as products.
They attract because they have opposite charges
Water is always the solvent
