Solution

The correct option is D 58 g
given, 116 mg of a compound vaporization in victor meyer's apparatus displaces 44.8 ml of air of air measured at stp.
given volume = 44.8ml
so, number of mole of compound = given Volume/22400 ml
= 44.8ml22400ml
= 21000 = 0.002
we know, no of moles of compound = given weight/molecular weight of compound
so, 0.002 = 116mg/molecular weight of compound
is, molecular weight of compound = 116×1030.002
= 58g/mol
