Answer:C_{1}H_{2}

Explanation:

take gram & convert to mol (using the mm of the element) ,

85.6g C \frac{1 mol }{12.01g} = 7.12          14.4g H\frac{1 mol}{1.01g}  =14.2 then take the smallest number & divide  7.12/7.12 =1  14.2/7.12= 2. since the numbers are in whole numbers the answer is C_{1}H_{2}.
