Number of alkanes obtained on electrolysis of a mixture of CH3COONa\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COONa} and C2H5COONa\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{COONa} is ________.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

CH3COONa→C˙H3\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COONa} \rightarrow \dot{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}_3

C2H5COONa→C˙2H5\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{COONa} \rightarrow \dot{\mathrm{C}}_2 \mathrm{H}_5

2C˙2H5→CH3−CH2−CH2−CH32 \dot{\mathrm{C}}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_3

2CH˙3→CH3−CH32 \dot{\mathrm{CH}}_3 \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_3

C˙H3+C˙2H5→CH3−CH2−CH3\dot{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}_3+\dot{\mathrm{C}}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_3
