An organic compound contains C, H and O ...

An organic compound contains C, H and O as its constituents. On heating in absence of air, 3.10g of this compound, produces 1.24g of carbon. But if 0.5 g of the compound is burnt in presence of air, 0.3 g of `H_(2)O` is formed. 0.05 gram-mole of the compound contains 4.8g of oxygen. what is the molecular formula off the compound?
