Balance the following  equation  by choosing  the correct option .

$xKNO_{3}+yC_{12}H_{22}O_{11} \rightarrow   pN_{2}+qCO_{2}+rH_{2}O+sK_{2}CO_{3}$


A) x:36,y=55,p:24,q=24,r=5,s=48

B) x=48,y=5,p=24,q=36,r=55,s=24

C) x=24,y=24,p=36,q=55,r=48,s=5

D) x=24,y=48, p=36,q=24,r=5,s=55

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

$48 KNO_{3}+5C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} \rightarrow  24 N_{2}+36 CO_{2}+55H_{2}O+24 K_{2}CO_{3}$
