Fischer – Tropsch synthesis involves the formation of alkanes by the combination of?

Explanation

The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis involves the combination of CO and H₂ to form alkanes. 


CO (carbon monoxide) and H₂ (hydrogen): are collectively known as "syngas".

The Fischer-Tropsch process uses a catalyst to convert this syngas into liquid hydrocarbons, primarily alkanes.
