Answer:
C₄H₆
Step-by-step explanation:
The empirical formula of the compound is given as;
C₂H₃
Now find the molecular mass of the empirical formula first;
C₂H₃ = 2(12) + 3(1) = 27g/mol
Since the molecular mass of the true compound is 54,
Ratio of the molecular formula to empirical formula = 54/27 = 2
Molecular formula = 2( C₂H₃ ) = C₄H₆
