11. An industrial chemist who works for a firm which manufactures ethyne (C2H2) discovers a very cheap way of producing ethyne. Unfortunately, the ethyne is contaminated with ethene. Unless the mixture contains at least 50% by volume of ethyne, it is useless. In order to determine the relative proportions of the two gases in the mixture, he exploded 10.0 cm3 of the mixture with 30.0 cm3 of oxygen. After absorbing the residual CO2 with KOH, the unreacted O2 occupied 2.0 cm3. Calculate the composition of the mixture by volume.
