The molar mass of a compound X is 56. its empirical formula is CH2. X is

A.

butene

B.

butyne

C.

ethene

D.

propene

E.

propyne

Correct answer is A

\((CH_{2})x = 56\)

\((12 + 2)x = 56\)

\(14x = 56\)

\(x = \frac{56}{14}\)

\(x = 4\)

Hence, the empirical formula is \((CH_{2}) \times 4\) 

= \(C_{4}H_{8}\)
