Detailed Solution

Given, EF=CH2O

Let the molecular formula be CH2On

1 mole of a compound contains 2n moles of H atoms or n moles of HydrogenH2

0.0835 mole of the compound will contain 0.0835n moles of Hydrogen (H2

= 0.1670n moles of H atom

0.1670n=1

n=1÷0.1670=5.96

The molecular formula is C6H12O6
