Answer:

Cyclopentane (C5H10)

Explanation:

The molar mass of CH2 is about 14.3, Since empirical is a ratio just divide the given molar mass by the molar mass of the empirical. 70.15/14.3=5 So now multiple everything by 5 in the empirical equation.

So, a compound that has an empirical formula of CH2 and a molar mass of 70.15 will have molecular formula of" C5H10".
