उत्तर

Element Atomic mass Percentage Relative number of moles Simplest 
mole ratio
Whole number ratio 
C 12 12.76 12.76/12 = 1.06 1.06/1.06 = 1 1
H 1 2.13 2.13/1 =2.13 2.13/1.06 = 2 2
Br 80 85.11 85.11/80 =1.06 1.06/1.06 = 1 1

So the Empirical formula of the compound will be CH2Br.
Now the Empirical formula mass will be = Atomic mass of C + Atomic mass of H + Atomic mass of Br
= 12 + 1 x 2 + 80 = 94
Now as Molecular mass = 2 x vapour density
= 2 x 94 = 188.
So n = Molecular mass / empirical formula mass
= 188/ 94 = 2
Molecular formula of the compound is = n x empirical formula
= 2 x (CH2Br) = C2H4Br2
