<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[RxN - Balanced] C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2C₂H₅OH + 2CO₂
[Given] 500. g C₆H₁₂O₆ (Glucose)
[Solve] moles C₂H₅OH (Ethanol)
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
[RxN] 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2 mol C₂H₅OH
[PT] Molar mass of C - 12.01 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ - 6(12.01) + 12(1.01) + 6(16.00) = 180.18 g/mol

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is
Explanation : Given,
Percentage of C = 38.8 %
Percentage of H = 16.2 %
Percentage of N = 45.1 %
Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.
Mass of C = 38.8 g
Mass of H = 16.2 g
Mass of N = 45.4 g
To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:
Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.
Moles of Carbon =
Moles of Hydrogen =
Moles of Nitrogen =
Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.
For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 3.23 moles.
For Carbon =
For Hydrogen =
For Oxygen =
Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.
The ratio of C : H : N = 1 : 5 : 1
Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is
