Answer:

In order to find the molecular formula from an empirical formula you must find the ratio of their molecular masses.

We know that the molecular mass of the molecule is 70

gmol-1

. We can calculate the molar mass of

CH2

from the periodic table:

C=12.01

gmol−1

H=1.01

gmol−1

CH2 =14.03

gmol−1

Hence we can find the ratio:

14.03

≈

0.2

First, let's start off by finding the mass of this whole hydrate.
(Note: the unit of measurement for mass will be amu)

Let's find the molecular mass of each element.
$Co=58.933$
$Cl=35.45$
$H=1.008$
$O=15.999$

Now, let's find the mass of each compound.

$CoCl_2=58.933+2(35.45)=129.833$
$H_2O=2(1.008)+15.999=18.015$

We have 6 molecules of H2O, so multiply 18.015 by 6 then add that with the weight of CoCl2.

$6(18.015)=108.09$
$129.833+108.09=237.923$

Now divide 108.09 (mass of all the H2O in the hydrate) by 237.923 (total mass of hydrate).

$\dfrac{108.09}{237.923}$

$\approx0.45431$

Turn that into a percentage and you get 45.431%.
Hope this helps! :)
