    The reaction \[{{C}_{12}}{{H}_{26}}\xrightarrow{{}}{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}+{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{14}}\] represent:

    A)  substitution    

    B)  synthesis

    C)  cracking    

    D)  polymerization

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Key Idea: (i) In substitution: reaction an atom or group or group of atoms replaces other. (ii) In synthesis: reaction new compound is formed from elements. (iii) Cracking: Involved breaking of alkane molecules 'into   smaller   hydrocarbon molecules, (iv) Polymerisation is condensation of smaller units to form bigger molecule. \[\therefore \]\[\underset{\text{reaction}}{\mathop{{{C}_{12}}{{H}_{26}}}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}+{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{14}}\]is cracking
