    The empirical formula of a compound is One mole of this compound has a mass of 42 grams. Its molecular formula is:

    A)  \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{6}}\]                                   

    B)  \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{8}}\]

    C)  \[C{{H}_{2}}\]           

    D)         \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Empirical formula of compound = \[C{{H}_{2}}\] Molecular mass of the compound = 42 \[\therefore n=42/14=3\] \[\therefore \] Hence molecular formula = \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{6}}\]
