CH₇ is the empirical formula of the car fuel.
Explanation:
To find the empirical formula we use the following algorithm.
First divide each mass the the molar weight of each element:
for carbon 2.87 / 12 = 0.239
for hydrogen 3.41 / 2 = 1.705
And now divide each quantity by the lowest number which is 0.239:
for carbon 0.239 / 0.239 = 1
for hydrogen 1.705 / 0.239 = 7.13 ≈ 7
The empirical formula of the car fuel is CH₇.
I have to tell you that in reality this formula is wrong because is not possible to exist. However the algorithm for finding the empirical formula is right, the problem may reside in the amounts of carbon and hydrogen given.

If a sample of gas is a 0.622-gram, volume of 2.4 L at 287 K and 0.850 atm. Then the molar mass of the gas is 7.18 g/mol
<h3>What is an ideal gas equation?</h3>
The ideal gas law (PV = nRT) relates to the macroscopic properties of ideal gases.
An ideal gas is a gas in which the particles (a) do not attract or repel one another and (b) take up no space (have no volume).
Given :
The ideal gas equation is given below.
n = PV/RT
n = 86126.25 x 0.0024 / 8.314 x 287
n = 0.622 / molar mass (n = Avogardos number)
Molar mass = 7.18 g
Hence, the molar mass of a 0.622-gram sample of gas having a volume of 2.4 L at 287 K and 0.850 atm is 7.18 g
