Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

1g of Hydrocarbon = 0.93g of Carbon, therefore, Hydrogen = (1 - 0.93)g = 0.07g

    C       :      H

0.93       :      0.07

\(\frac{0.93}{12}\)   :   \(\frac{0.07}{1}\)

0.078         :        0.07

\(\frac{0.078}{0.07}    :    \frac{0.07}{0.07}\)

\(\approxeq   1:1\)
