<span>Total mass = 2.75g
Mass % of Mg = 1.0g x 100/2.75g = 36.36 %
Mass % of O = 1.75g x 100/2.75g = 63.64 %
Mol of Mg = 36.36/24 = 1.515
Mol of O = 63.64/16 = 3.977
Ratio of Mol of Mg and O in the substance = (1.515 : 3.977) x 2 = 3 : 8
The empirical formula of substance is Mg3O8</span>
organic molecules made up of carbon and hydrogen elements joined together in long groups called hydrocarbons. The arrangement of these hydrocarbon chains, and their interaction with each other, determines fat type.
