MCQ
In a compound the ratio of masses of $H,C,O$ and $N$ is $1:3:4:7$. The empirical formula is
  • A
    $HC_3O_4N_7$
  • $H_4CON_2$
  • C
    $HC_4O_2N_2$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$H_4CON_2$
b
$\mathrm{H}=1 / 1=1=4 \quad \therefore \mathrm{H}_{4} \mathrm{CON}_{2}$

$C=3 / 12=\frac{1}{4}=1$

$\mathrm{O}=4 / 16=\frac{1}{4}=1$

$\mathrm{N}=7 / 14=\frac{1}{2}=2$
