उत्तर

Element %  
C 75.92 `75.92/12 = 6.32/1.26  = 5`
H 6.32 `6.32/1 = 6.32/1.26 = 5`
N 17.76 `17.76/14 = 1.26/1.26 = 1`

  Empirical formula ; - C5H5N

Molecular weight = 2 ×  Vapour Density
                             = 2 × 39.5 

                             = 79 
Empirical formula weight = C × 5 + H × 5 + N × 1
                                         = 12 × 5 + 1 × 5 + 14 × 1 
                                         = 60 + 5 + 14
                                         = 79

`n = "Molecular weight"/("Empirical"  "formula"  "weight" )`
∴ Molecular formula = Empirical formula = C5H5N
