Answer:
| C | 1.5x | 1.5x/12 | (1.5x * 16)/12x | 2 |
| H | x/4 | x/4 | 16x/4x | 4 |
| O | x | x/16 | 16x/16x | 1 |
Row 1 - Symbols of the elements in the formula
Row 2 - the % compositions as mentioned in the question (Considering "x" for Oxygen atom and thereby relating that for C and H atoms further
Row 3 - The division of these % with Atomic masses of the respective atoms.
Row 4 - Division of these ratios with the minimum value obtained (Here x/16)
Row 5 - Obtaining the simplest ratio.
Thus following the ratio we can come to conclusion that answer is b, C2H4O.
