A neutral organic compound with four carbon atoms X reacts with sodium metal to evolve a gas which burns with a ‘pop’ sound. Another organic compound Y with four carbon atoms reacts with sodium hydrogen carbonate to evolve a gas which turns lime water milky. When compounds X and Y are heated together in the presence of a little of concentrated sulphuric acid, then a new compound Z is formed.

What is compound Y? Also write its formula.
