[3.94] An organic compound was found to contain only C, H, and Cl. When a 1.50-g sample of
the compound was completely combusted in air, 3.52 g of CO
was formed. In a separate
2
experiment the chlorine in a 1.00-g sample of the compound was converted to 1.27 g of AgCl.
Determine the empirical formula of the compound.
