When 5.454 grams of a hydrocarbon, CxHy, were burned in a combustion analysis apparatus, 17.11 grams of CO2 and 7.006 grams of H2O were produced. In a separate experiment, the molar mass of the compound was found to be 56.11 g/mol. Determine the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon.
