Determine the empirical formula of compound x


Compound X is known to contain hydrogen, carbon, and the oxygen. When a fresh sample of "Compound X" was burned, it was found that the pressure of the H2O gas created was twice the pressure of the CO2 gas. It was further found that "Compound X" was 49.93 percen toxygen by mass.

1. Determine the empirical formula of "Compound X"?

2. What is the MF when the Compound X, vaporized, it effuses at a rate that is 3.987 times slower than H2 gas.
