Answer:
B)3
Explanation:
I'm assuming the 2 is meant to be smaller. If it were a regular size 2 the answer would be 2 and that isn't an option
Answer:
first of all is that really chemistry
There is different types of salt.
1)table salt
2)lime salt
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound.
Assuming for 100 g of the compound
Cu As S
mass 48.41 g 19.02 g 32.57 g
number of moles 48.41 / 63.5 g/mol 19.02 / 75 g/mol 32.57 / 32 g/mol
= 0.762 mol = 0.2536 mol = 1.018 mol
divide by the least number of moles
0.762 / 0.2536 0.2536 / 0.2536 1.018 / 0.2536
= 3.00 = 1.00 = 4.01
once they are rounded off
Cu - 3
As - 1
S - 4
therefore empirical formula is Cu₃AsS₄
