Molecular mass is given by
=Atomic mass* no. of molecular.
H2 => 1*2 = 2.
CH4 => (12*1) + (1*4) = 16.
N2 => 14*2 = 28.
O2 => 16*2 = 32.

Molecular mass is directly proportional to the atomic number.

Molecular formula of hydrogen is H2 so molecular weight is 2 and molecular weight of nitrogen is 28 and molecular weight of oxygen is 32 and molecular weight of methane is 16 so here minimum valu 2 so hydrogen is correct.

In periodic table atomic no. of hydrogen is 1. So that principle the molecular mass is very less.

Molecular formula for H2 is 2. For nitrogen 28, for oxygen 32 and for CH4 16.

Molecular formula of Hydrogen is H2, So the molecular weight = 2*1=2, Hence
This is the minimum weight when compare with rest of the opt.
