An organic compound contains 2.22% by weight of Hydrogen, 26.67% by weight of Carbon and remaining Oxygen. Molecular formula of the organic compound could be

A
C₆H₁₂O₆
B
C₃H₆O
C
C₂H₂O₄
D
C₂H₄O

Solution:

C	H	O
$\frac{26.67}{12}$	$\frac{2.22}{1}$	$\frac{71.11}{16}$
2.22	2.22	4.44
1	1	2

Molecular formula = (CHO₂)_n ;

$∴$ Molecular formula = C₂H₂O₄ ;
