Answer:
0.1 is the retention factor.
Explanation:
Distance covered by solvent ,
Distance covered by solute or ion,
Retention factor
is defined as ratio of distance traveled by solute to the distance traveled by solvent.
0.1 is the retention factor.
The molecular formula of the compound is C12H15O3 hence the molar mass of the compound is 207 g/mol.
We need to obtain the number of moles of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in the compound;
Carbon = 24.91 g/44g/mol × 1 mole of carbon = 0.566 moles
Mass of carbon = 0.566 moles × 12 g/mol = 6.792 g
Number of moles of hydrogen = 6.522 g/18 g/mol × 2 moles = 0.725 moles
Mass of hydrogen = 0.725 moles × 1 g/mol = 0.725 g
Mass of oxygen = 10 - (6.792 g + 0.725 g) = 2.483 g
Number of moles of oxygen = 2.483 g/16 g/mol = 0.155 moles
Now we must divide through by the lowest number of moles;
C - 0.566/0.155 H - 0.725/0.155 O - 0.155/0.155
C - 4 H - 5 O - 1
The simplest formula is C4H5O Recall that the molar mass of the compound lies between 150.0 and 220.0 g/mol
4(12) + 5(1) + 16 = 69
Hence; n = 3 and the molecular formula of the compound is C12H15O3
The molar mass of the compound is; 12(12) + 15(1) + 3(16) = 207 g/mol
