Answer:

2-methylbutane

Explanation:

First, you want to identify the largest number of sequential carbons. In this case, the parent chain is made up of 4 carbons. This makes the base name, butane.

Next, you want to identify any branches. There is a branch made up of 1 carbon, and these are referred to as a methyl group. The lowest possible carbon on the parent chain this branch is attached to is the second carbon.

When you put these factors together, you are left with the name: 2-methylbutane.

Answer:

Empirical CHO2

Molecular C2H2O4

Explanation:

To determine the formulas, firstly, we need to divide the percentage compositions by the atomic masses.

Kindly note that the atomic mass of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen are 12, 16 and 1 respectively. We proceed with the division as follows:

C = 26.7/12 = 2.225

H = 2.2/1 = 2.2

O = 71.1/16 = 4.44375

We then proceed to divide by the smallest value which is 2.2 in this case

C = 2.25/2.2 = 1

H = 2.2/2.2 = 1

O = 4.44375/2.2 = 2

Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2

We now proceed to get the molecular formula as follows

[12+ 1 + 16(2) ]n = 90.04

45n = 90.04

n = 90.04/45 = 2

The molecular formula is :

C2H2O4
