Jeez this is middle school really. covalently bond
This is done by reducing each number by a common factor for each formula.
C3H6O6- all can be divided by 3 -> CH3O3 (you don't have to put a 1 for C, only if your teacher requests it. It is generally understood if not written)
H2O2- all can be divided by 2 -> H1O1 (had to put the 1's bc of the unintended language)
C8H8S2- all can be divided by 2 -> C4H4S
P5O15- all can be divided by 5- PO3
*****it is important to note that <em>all </em>numbers in the molecular formula are divided by the same thing to reduce them. decimals are <em>never </em>used in empirical formulas, only whole numbers.*****
<span>what is the atomic mass of an atom of aluminum?
</span>b.13
<span />
called the Avogadro number
N(A)= 6.02 x 10^23 mol^-1
1 mole of SO3 will contain 6.02 x 10^23 mol^-1 of SO3 molecules.
thus, 1.14moles will contain;
= 1.14mol x [3mol O/1mol SO3] x [6.02 x 10^23
atoms O/1mol O]
= 2.05884 x 10^24 oxygen atoms
= 1.14mol x [1mol S/1mol SO3] x [6.02 x 10^23
atoms O/1mol O]
= 6.8628 x 10^23 sulfur atoms
hope this helps:-)
