Answer:
C₅H₁₀O₅
Explanation:
1. Calculate the mass of each element in 2.78 mg of X.
(a) Mass of C

(b) Mass of H

(c) Mass of O
Mass of O = 3.5 - 1.400 - 0.2349 = 1.87 g
2. Calculate the moles of each element

3. Calculate the molar ratios
Divide all moles by the smallest number of moles.

4. Round the ratios to the nearest integer
C:H:O = 1:2:1
5. Write the empirical formula
The empirical formula is CH₂O.
6. Calculate the molecular formula.
EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u
The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.
MF = (EF)ₙ

MF = (CH₂O)₅ = C₅H₁₀O₅
The molecular formula of X is C₅H₁₀O₅.
Answer:i believe you are to decompose the formula (i think)
H2O is the chemical formula of water. It means that each molecule of water is made up of two hydrogen atoms, indicated by the letter H, and a single oxygen atom, represented by the O. Water is a chemical substance with no smell, taste, or color.
