To figure out the ratios of these compounds, it is important to remember that the charge of these compounds must be <em>neutral</em>.

So in order to make them neutral, you must have specific ratios:

Na^{+}: Br^{-}  =1:1; This is true because they both have a charge of magnitude of 1.

Al^{3+}: Cl^{-}=1:3; We need 3 chlorine atoms because we need to balance out the charge from the 3+ charge of aluminum - therefore since chlorine has a 1- charge, we need 3 atoms.

Mg^{2+}: O^{2-}=1:1; The charges of the magnesium (2+) are balanced with the oxygen charge (2-).

Al^{3+}: O^{2-}=2:3; This is correct because if charges are like this, you must find the least common factor in order to know the ratio. The LCF is 6, therefore, for the atom with a 3+ charge, you need 2 of them, and for the atom with a 2- charge, you need 3 of them. This keeps the charge neutral.

Epinephrine (adrenaline) is a hormone secreted into the bloodstream in times of stress. It contains 59.0% C, 7.15% H, 26.20% O,
vichka [17]

Answer:

C9H13O3N

Explanation:

Take the atomic mass of C=12.0, H=1.0, O=16.0 and N=14.0.

We can draw a chart (please view this on desktop so to avoid spacing errors):

Let the mass of Epinephrine be 100g.

                             C                       H                          O                              N

mass(g) :              59                      7.15                    26.2                         7.65

no. of moles : 59/12 =4.9167     7.15/1 = 7.15     26.2/16=1.6375 7.65/14=0.5464

(n.o.m. = mass/molar mass)

Ratio:   4.9167/0.5464 =9    7.15/0.5464=13      1.6375= 3      0.5464/0.5464 =1

(divide the n.o.m. by the smallest n.o.m., which is 0.5464 in this case, take the whole numbers)

So, the empirical formula will be: C9H13O3N

But this is still not yet the molecular formula. We have to ensure the molar mass is 183g/mol. Multiply the empirical formula by n.

So, let the molecular formula of Epinephrine be (C9H13O3N)n.

12x9n + 1x13n + 16x3n + 14n = 183

108n + 13n + 48n + 14n = 183

183 n = 183.

n = 1

Hence, the molecular formula is C9H13O3N.
