Assertion A: Empiricial formula of glucose or that of acetic acid is `CH_(2)O`.
Reason(R):If percentage composition of elements is same, then empirical formula is same.
The correct answer is

A

Both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is the correct explanation of (A)

B

Both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is not the correct explanation of (A)

C

(A) is true but (R ) is false

D

(A) is false but (R ) is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Molecular formula of glucose = `C_(6)H_(12)O_(6))`
Empirical formular of glucose = `CH_(2)O`
Molecular formula of acitic acid
`=CH_(3)COOH(C_(2)H_(4)O_(2))`
Empirical formula of acitic acid = `CH_(2)O`
