B Correct answer
Explanation

LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) used for cooking is primarily a mixture of butane and propane. These hydrocarbons are easily liquefied under moderate pressure, making them ideal for storage and transport in gas cylinders. Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are combustion products, not components of the fuel itself.
