The empirical and molecular formulas will be  C_5H_5O_2 and  C_1_0H_1_0O_4 respectively.

<h3>Empirical and molecular formula</h3>

The compound contains C, H, and O.

C = 61.15/12 = 5.0958

H = 5.3/1 = 5.3

O = 31.55/16 = 1.9719

Divide by the smallest

C = 2.6

H = 2.7

O = 1

Thus, the empirical formula is C_5H_5O_2

Empirical formula mass = (12x5) + (1x5) + 16x2 = 97

n = 152.15/97 = 2

The molecular formula is C_1_0H_1_0O_4

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Upon arrival we needed to hunt in this new land we only had five refills and they needed 50 g of gunpowder to be shot once. We only have 15 pounds of gunpowder. It is taking six shots to kill one of these wild turkeys. How many turkeys can be shot with 15 pounds of gunpowder?

If we had plenty of refills, and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey at 50 gms of gunpowder per shot, then each turkey requires 6X50 =300gms of gunpowder.  We have 15X454 gms of gunpowder and have the potential to kill 15X454/300=22.7 or 22 turkeys.and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey.

The limiting reagent is the number of refills, and withonly 5, we are out of luck and can't kill one turkey
