44gof a sample on complete combusion gi...

`44g`of a sample on complete combusion given `88gm CO_(2)` and `36gm` of `H_(2)O`. The molecular formula of the complound may be

A

`C_(2)H_(6)`

B

`C_(2)H_(6)O`

C

`C_(2)H_(4)O`

D

`C_(3)H_(6)O`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`C_(x)H_(y)+((2x+y//2)/2)O_(2)toxCO_(2)+y//2H_(2)O`
`44g" "(88g)/44" "36/18`
`" "2" "2`
`x=2`
`y//2=4`
`x=2`
`y=4`
