Assertion(A) The empirical mass of ethene is half of its molecular mass.
Reason(R) The empirical formula represents the simplest whole number ratio of various atoms present in a compound.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

A is true but R is false.

C

A is false but R is true.

D

Both A and R are flase.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Both assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
The molecualr formula of ethene is `C_(2)H_(4)` and itsw empirical formula is `CH_(2)`
Thus, Molecular formula =Empirical formula `xx2`
