Given the percentage composition of HC as C → 81.82 % and H → 18.18 %
So the ratio of number if atoms of C and H in its molecule can will be:
C : H = 81.82 12 : 18.18 1 C : H = 6.82 : 18.18 = 6.82 6.82 : 18.18 6.82 = 1 : 2.66 ≈ 3 : 8
So the Empirical Formula of hydrocarbon is:
C 3 H 8
As the mass of one litre of hydrocarbon is same as that of C O 2 The molar mass of the HC will be same as that of C O 2 i.e 44 g mol
Now let Molecular formula of the HC be ( C 3 H 8 ) n
Using molar mass of C and H the molar mass of the HC from its molecular formula is:
( 3 × 12 + 8 × 1 ) n = 44 n So 44 n = 44 ⇒ n = 1
Hence the molecular formula of HC is C 3 H 8
Does that help?
Larger elements are able to form in a supernova explosion because the star releases very large amounts of energy as well as neutrons, which allows elements heavier than iron to be produced.
<h3>What is Supernova?</h3>
This is referred to the explosion of a star and it resulting in larger elements being formed through a process known as nucleosynthesis and is usually accompanied by an increase in the brightness of the star.
The elements produced are usually larger than elements such as iron and examples include uranium, gold etc.
This is therefore the reason why it was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

Answer:
Answer A
Explanation:
because it had 6 electrons in the last shell so it needs two electrons to reach 8
