During the thermal cracking of one molecule of dodecane (C12H26\text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{26}C12​H26​), one molecule of butane (C4H10\text{C}_4\text{H}_{10}C4​H10​) and two molecules of a hydrocarbon Y Y\,Y are produced.

Which option correctly identifies the molecular formula of Y Y\,Y and its homologous series?

Molecular formula: C4H8\text{C}_4\text{H}_8C4​H8​; Homologous series: Alkene

Molecular formula: C4H10\text{C}_4\text{H}_{10}C4​H10​; Homologous series: Alkane

Molecular formula: C8H16\text{C}_8\text{H}_{16}C8​H16​; Homologous series: Alkene

Molecular formula: C4H8\text{C}_4\text{H}_8C4​H8​; Homologous series: Alkane
