Mass fraction of C in CO₂ = (12.0 g/mol) / [(12.0 + 16.0×2) g/mol] = 12.0/44.0
Mass fraction of H in H₂O = (1.0×2 g/mol) / [(1.0×2 + 16.0) g/mol] = 2.0/18.0

Mass of C in the compound = Mass of C in CO₂ formed = (0.07484 g) × (12.0/44.0) = 0.02041 g
Mass of H in the compound = Mass of H in H₂O formed = (0.03053 g) × (2.0/18.0) = 0.003392 g

Mole ratio C : H = (0.02041/12.0) : (0.003392/1.0) = 0.001701 : 0.003392 = 1 : 2
Hence, empirical formula = CH₂
