An empirical formula is the "reduced" version of a molecular formula. For example, CH3 is the empirical formula for C2H6, C3H9, C4H12, and so forth. The difference in subscripts between an empirical formula and molecular formula is given by the constant n. If n is a whole number, this means the numerator is the molecular formula. So the answer is D. <span>subscript of C in molecular formula = n  subscript of C in empirical formula. This can be rewritten as:

n = subscript of C in molecular formula/subscript of C in empirical formula</span>

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

CaO(s) + 2NH4Cl(aq) -------> CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l) + 2NH3(g)

Explanation:

The solvay process is an important process in the chemical industry. In this process, ammonia gas is first dissolved in concentrated brine to form a mixture known as ammoniacal brine. This solution is made to trickle down the tower. A counter stream of carbon dioxide is forced up the tower. The two substances react to form sodium hydrogen trioxocarbonate IV. This substance is only slightly soluble and separates out as a solid sludge. The product is now dried and heated to give sodium trioxocarbonate IV.

The overall reaction of the process can be given as;

CaO(s) + 2NH4Cl(aq) -------> CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l) + 2NH3(g)

Calcium chloride is merely a by-product.
