116 g of a substance upon dissociation reaction, yields 7.5 g of hydrogen, 60g of oxygen and 48.5 g of carbon. Given that the atomic masses of H, O and C are 1, 16 and 12 respectively. The data agrees with how many formulae of the following?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
%H = 
x 100 = 6.5 116
%O = 
x 100 = 51.7
%C = 
x 100 = 41.8
Relative atomicities = H 
6.5
O 
= 3.25 16
C 
= 3.5 12
