a) 1.488×10-4 mol of an unidentified gaseous substance effuses through a tiny hole in 81.2 s.
Under identical conditions, 1.945×10-4 mol of argon gas takes 88.0 s to effuse.
What is the molar mass of the unidentified substance (in g/mol)?

b)The percentage C by mass in the above unidentified substance is 82.7%. It may also contain H.
What is the molecular formula of the substance?
(In typing this formula use the convention that C comes first.)

c)Under identical conditions, how many moles of allene (C3H4) gas would effuse in 76.6 s?

I know how to do A and B, i just need help with C.
