A compound is 2.00% H by mass, 32.7% S by mass, and 65.3% O by mass. What is its empirical formula? The second step is to calcul

ate the number of moles of each element present in the sample. To do this, you must divide the mass of each element by its molar mass. The masses of the elements present are: mass H = g mass S = g mass O = g

Lets take 100 g of this compound,
so it is going to be 2.00 g H, 32.7 g S and 65.3 g O.

2.00 g H *1 mol H/1.01 g H ≈ 1.98 mol H
32.7 g S *1 mol S/ 32.1 g S ≈ 1.02 mol S
65.3 g O * 1 mol O/16.0 g O ≈ 4.08 mol O

1.98 mol H : 1.02 mol S : 4.08 mol O = 2 mol H : 1 mol S : 4 mol O

the masses of the elements present are:

mass H = 2.00 g

mass S = 32.7 g

mass O = 65.3 g

Which is most likely why many scientists reject the cold fusion theory?
Masja [62]
The answer is D. The cold fusion theory was first brought about by Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann in 1989. They claimed that their unintended experiment has produced enormous amounts energy at room temperatures that could only be explained by cold fusion theory. The experiment involved the electrolysis of heavy water (with deuterium rather than hydrogen isotope) on a palladium (Pd) electrode. Their claims had brought immense attention by scientists, however, subsequent replicative experiments attempts failed and some discredited the initial experiment.
