Answer:

My answer is according to 30g of organic substances

Explanation:

Moles of C= moles of CO

​  

=  

44

0.44

​  

=0.01 moles

Moles of H=2×moles of H

​  

O=2×  

18

0.18

​  

=0.02 moles

Weight of oxygen = ( 0.30 - weight of carbon and hydrogen ) = (0.3−0.01×12−0.02×1)=0.16 gm

Moles of O=  

16

0.16

​  

=0.01 moles

Empirical formula =CH
