Number of hydrogen atoms per molecule of a hydrocarbon A having85.8%carbon is (Given : Molar mass ofA=84 g mol-1)

Answer:
12
Solution:

Using table of empirical formula for the compound:

ElementPercentageMoleratio
C85.885.812=7.151
H14.214.21=14.22

 

Thus, empirical formula is CH2, empirical molecular mass = 14
Thus, Molecular MassEmpirical Mass = n

14×n=84

n=6

Molecular formula C6H12
