Empirical formula is CCl.

Since the molar mass is provided, it is safe to assume that the empirical formula is not equal to the molecular formula.

We need to get the empirical weight to determine the multiple needed to arrive to the correct molecular formula.

Atom          Number in Molecule            Atomic Weight        Total Mass
C                              1                            12.0107                  12.0107
Cl                              1                            35.453                   <u> 35.453</u>
                                                          total empirical weight    47.4637

Molecular weight / Empirical Weight
284.77 g/mol / 47.46 g/mol = 6 - the multiple needed to be multiplied with the empirical formula to get the molecular formula.

C has a molecular number of 1 =>  1 * 6 = 6  Thus C₆
Cl has a molecular number of 1 => 1 * 6 = 6 Thus Cl₆

Molecular Formula is C₆CL₆

What is a positive ion?
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

If the atom has more electrons than protons, it is a negative ion or ANION. If it has more protons than electrons, it is a positive ion.

Explanation:

Positive ions are typically metals or act like metals. Many common materials contain these ions. Mercury is found in thermometers, for instance, and aluminum is a metal that is found in a surprising amount of things.

Xelga [282]
0.075 L * 1.0 M = 0.075 mol HCl
H2 is half of HCl by the coefficients divide 0.075 by 2 and get 0.0375 mol H2 gas
