0.083 mole of carbohydrate with empirical formula CH₂O contains 1 g of hydrogen. What is the molecular formula of the carbohydrate?

Options:
(1) C₅H₁₀O₅
(2) C₆H₁₂O₆
(3) C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁
(4) C₆H₁₂O₄

Asked by ovowendygirl7786

Answer (2)

The molecular formula of the carbohydrate is C₆H₁₂O₆. This is determined from the fact that the empirical formula is CH₂O, whose molar mass is 30 g/mol, and it fits the calculation for the mass derived from the amount of hydrogen provided. Therefore, the correct answer is option (2).
