Detailed Solution

Let the volume of ethane = V1
  Volume of methane = (20V1)
     CH4   + O2CO2  + 2H2O20V1               20V1
C2H6+72O22CO2+3H2O          V1                                                 2V1
Given    20V1+2V1=35ml
        V1=15ml

Volume of methane = (20-15) = 5 ml
               Now if the mole ratio is y : x
Then VCH4=15ml
VC2H6=5ml
CH4+2O2CO2+2H2O15ml               15     ml   
C2H6+72O22CO2+3H2O 5ml                      10ml
VCO2=25ml
