Answer: The correct option is d.
Explanation: Empirical formula is a chemical formula which has the simplest ratio of elements present in a chemical compound.
From the given following pairs, the pair which shares the same empirical formula is [tex]C_2H_6\text{ and }C_4H_{12}[/tex]
Empirical formula of [tex]C_2H_6[/tex] is [tex]CH_3[/tex] (by dividing the coefficients of [tex]C_2H_6[/tex] by 3)
Empirical formula of [tex]C_4H_{12}[/tex] is [tex]CH_3[/tex] (by dividing the coefficients of [tex]C_4H_{12}[/tex] by 3)
Both the chemical formulas have same empirical formula. Hence, the correct option is d.
