A compound contains 4.07% hydrogen, 24.27% Carbon and 71.65%, Chlorine

1.	A compound contains 4.07% hydrogen, 24.27% Carbon and 71.65%, Chlorine. Its molar mass is 98.96. Calculate is Empiricla and Molecular formulae.
Answer» Solution : Empirical FORMULA `=CH_(2)CL` MOLECULAR formula `=nxx` EMPIRICALFORMULA `n=("molar mass")/("Empirical formula mass")=89.96/48.5=2.04=2` Molecular formula `=2xxCH_(2)Cl=C_(2)H_(4)Cl_(2)`
