Hello!
We use the amount in grams (mass ratio) based on the composition of the elements, see: (in 100 g solution)
C: 83.7% = 83,7 g
H: 16.3% = 16.3 g
Let us use the above mentioned data (in g) and values will be converted to amount of substance (number of moles) by dividing by molecular mass (g / mol) each of the values, lets see:


We note that the values found above are not integers, so let's divide these values by the smallest of them, so that the proportion is not changed, let's see:


Note: So the ratio in the smallest whole numbers of carbon to hydrogen is 3:7, t<span>hus, the minimum or empirical formula found for the compound will be:

I hope this helps. =)
Answer:

Explanation:
At same temperature and same number of moles, Using Boyle's law
Given ,
V₁ = 10 mL
V₂ = 20 mL
P₁ = 5.85 kPa
P₂ = ?
Using above equation as:

Answer:
% yield = (0.872 g Cu / 1.017 g ) x 100 = 85.74 %.
