The empirical formula of an organic comp...

The empirical formula of an organic compound carbon & hydrogen is `CH_(2)` The mass of `1"litre"` of organic gas is exactly equal to mass of 1 litre `N_(2)` therefore molecular formula of organic gas is .

A

`C_(2)H_(4)`

B

`C_(3)H_(6)`

C

`C_(6)H_(12)`

D

`C_(4)H_(8)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`"E.F. wt"=1xx2+2xx1=14`
`"M.wt"=28`
`n=(28)/(12)=2`
`M.F=(E.F)_(n)=(CH_(2))_(2)=C_(2)H_(4)`
