Empirical   formula  is  calculated   as  follows

calculate  the  moles  of  each  element,  that  is   %  composition/  molar  mass
molar  masses  (  Si=  28.09g/mol ,  Cl=  35.5  g/mol,  I=126.9 g/mol)

moles  of  silicon =  7.962/28.09g/mol=  0.283  moles
moles  of  chlorine =  20.10 / 35.5g/mol =  0.566  moles
moles  of  iodine=  71.94 / 126.9  g/mol=  0.567  moles

divide  each  mole   with  smallest    mole  (0.283)
that  is    silicon =  0.283/0.283= 1 mole
             chlorine =  0.566/0.283=  2 mole
            Iodine=  o.567/0.283= 2  moles
empirical  formula  is  therefore=  SiCl2I2

In the titration of 50. 0 mL of 0. 400 M HCOOH with 0. 150 M LiOH, how many mL of LiOH are required to reach the equivalence poi
mart [117]

The volume of the 0.15 M LiOH solution required to react with 50 mL of 0.4 M HCOOH to the equivalence point is 133.3 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

HCOOH + LiOH —> HCOOLi + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of the acid, HCOOH (nA) = 1

The mole ratio of the base, LiOH (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of LiOH </h3>
  • Molarity of acid, HCOOH (Ma) = 0.4 M
  • Volume of acid, HCOOH (Va) = 50 mL
  • Molarity of base, LiOH (Mb) = 0.15 M
  • Volume of base, LiOH (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.4 × 50) / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

20 / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

Cross multiply

0.15 × Vb = 20

Divide both side by 0.15

Vb = 20 / 0.15

Vb = 133.3 mL

Thus, the volume of the LiOH solution needed is 133.3 mL
