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 explnanation 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.

Answer» 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`
