Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components making up the compound. the molecular formula is the actual ratio of components making up the compound.
the empirical formula is CH₂. We can find the mass of CH₂ one empirical unit and have to then find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula.
Mass of one empirical unit - CH₂ - 12 g/mol x 1 + 1 g/mol x 2 = 12 = 14 g
Molar mass of the compound is - 252 .5 g/mol
number of empirical units = molar mass / mass of empirical unit
=
= 18 units
Therefore molecular formula is - 18 times the empirical formula
molecular formula - CH₂ x 18 = C₁₈H₃₆
molecular formula is C₁₈H₃₆
Answer:
Explanation:
Lewis dot structures represent the symbol of an atom we're looking at and the number of valence electrons it has. This number is represented by the sum of dots around the symbol.
- Potassium is in group 1A, this means it only has one valence electron, so we draw K with one dot in its Lewis diagram;
- Argon is in group 8A, this means it has eight valence electrons, so we draw Ar with 8 dots around it in its Lewis diagram;
- Silicon is in group 4A, this means it has four valence electrons, so we draw Si with 4 dots around it in its Lewis diagram;
- Arsenic is in group 5A, this means it has five valence electrons, so we draw As with 5 dots around it in its Lewis diagram.
Those are represented in the image attached below:
