Answer: 1. The empirical formula is
2. The molecular formula is
Explanation:
If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.
So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.
Mass of P = 37.32 g
Mass of N = 16.88 g
Mass of F = 45.79 g
Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.
Moles of P =
Moles of N =
Moles of F =
Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.
For P =
For N =
For F =
The ratio of P: N: F= 1: 1: 2
Hence the empirical formula is
The empirical weight of = 1(31)+1(14)+2(19)= 82.98 g.
The molecular weight = 82.98 g/mole
Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.
The molecular formula will be=
<h3>Answer:</h3>
= 5.79 × 10^19 molecules
<h3>Explanation:</h3>The molar mass of the compound is 312 g/mol
Mass of the compound is 30.0 mg equivalent to 0.030 g (1 g = 1000 mg)
We are required to calculate the number of molecules present
We will use the following steps;
<h3>Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of the compound </h3>Therefore;
Moles of the compound will be;
= 9.615 × 10⁻5 mole
<h3>Step 2: Calculate the number of molecules present </h3>Using the Avogadro's constant, 6.022 × 10^23
1 mole of a compound contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules
Therefore;
9.615 × 10⁻5 moles of the compound will have ;
= 9.615 × 10⁻5 moles × 6.022 × 10^23 molecules
= 5.79 × 10^19 molecules
Therefore the compound contains 5.79 × 10^19 molecules
