When finding empirical formulas decimals are fine so you wouldn't have to multiply all of them to turn into whole numbers. What you would do is divide each of those numbers by the smallest of those numbers and take the nearest whole number so if you had:
1.81 mol .6 mol and .3.61 mol you would divide each of those numbers by .6
and you would have 3, 1, and 6
for your problem you would divide them all by 1 and Carbon would be 2 (if your teacher normally has you round down at .5's then it would be 1) hydrogen would be 3 and oxygen would be 1.
C2H3O
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Mass of carbon (C) in 2.190 g of carbon dioxide (CO₂)</u>
- atomic mass of C: 12.0107 g/mol
- molar mass of CO₂: 44.01 g/mol
- Set a proportion: 12.0107 g of C / 44.01 g of CO₂ = x / 2.190 g of CO₂
x = (12.0107 g of C / 44.01 g of CO₂ ) × 2.190 g of CO₂ = 0.59767 g of C

<u>2) Mass of hydrogen (H) in 0.930 g of water (H₂O)</u>
- atomic mass of H: 1.00784 g/mol
- molar mass of H₂O: 18.01528 g/mol
- proportion: 2 × 1.00784 g of H / 18.01528 g of H₂O = x / 0.930 g of H₂O
x = ( 2 × 1.00784 g of H / 18.01528 g of H₂O) × 0.930 g of H₂O = 0.10406 g of H
<u>3) Mass of oxygen (O) in 1.0857 g of pure sample</u>
- Mass of O = mass of pure sample - mass of C - mass of H
- Mass of O = 1.0857 g - 0.59767 g - 0.10406 = 0.38397 g O
Round to four decimals: Mass of O = 0.3840 g
<u>4) Mole calculations</u>
Divide the mass in grams of each element by its atomic mass:
- C: 0.59767 g / 12.0107 g/mol = 0.04976 mol
- H: 0.10406 g / 1.00784 g/mol = 0.10325 mol
- O: 0.3840 g / 15.999 g/mol = 0.02400 mol
<u>5) Divide every amount by the smallest value (to find the mole ratios)</u>
- C: 0.04976 mol / 0.02400 mol = 2.07 ≈ 2
- H: 0.10325 mol / 0.02400 mol = 4.3 ≈ 4
- O: 0.02400 mol / 0.02400 mol = 1
Thus the mole ratio is 2 : 4 : 1, and the empirical formula is:
It is called a hypothesis
