here is the question

Cyclopropane, a gas used with oxygen as a general anesthetic, is composed of 85.7%\displaystyle 85.7\% C and 14.3%\displaystyle 14.3\% H by mass. (a) If 1.56\displaystyle 1.56 g of cyclopropane has a volume of 1.00\displaystyle 1.00 L at 0.984\displaystyle 0.984 atm and 50.0C\displaystyle 50.0^{\circ}C, what is the molecular formula of cyclopropane? (b) Judging from its molecular formula, would you expect cyclopropane to deviate more or less than Ar from ideal-gas behavior at moderately high pressures and room temperature? Explain. (c) Would cyclopropane effuse through a pinhole faster or more slowly than methane, CH4\displaystyle 4?


my attemb
i understand the main ingredients in this question is carbon and hydrogen and argon
i know also 1\displaystyle 1 carbon atom with 4\displaystyle 4 hydrogen atom give the compound "methane" CH4\displaystyle 4
reactions is my game but i'm a little confused here☹️
it's not easy to determine the molecular formula of cycloprpane without knwoing the atmic mass of carbon and hydrogen
i think i can find them in the periodic table but then how to calculate the number of moles?😣
