Answer:
the empirical (lowest raios) is
C2H4Cl
Explanation:
A compound is known to consist solely of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine. Through elemental analysis, it was determined that the compound is composed of 24.27% carbon.
What is the empirical formula of this compound?
the compound has ONLY C, H, and Cl
the % Cl = 100% - 24.27% -4.03% = 71.7%
in 100 gm, there are 71.7 gm Cl, 24.27 gm C, and 4.03 gm H
the number of moles are Cl=71.7/70.91 =1.01= ~ 1
C = 24.27/12.0 = 2.02 =~ 2
H = 403/1.01 = 3.97 =~ 4
so the empirical (lowest raios) is
C2H4Cl
