Answer:

C4H4

Explanation:

92.31% of 52.0 g/mol is 48.0012 g/mol

7.69% of 52.0 g/mol is is 3.9988 g/mol

Carbon has a gram-formula mass of about 12, which goes into 48.0012 about 4 times, so there should be 4 atoms of Carbon

Hydrogen has a gram-formula mass of about 1, which goes into 3.9988 about 4 times, so there should also be 4 atoms of hydrogen
