The empirical formula is the lowest ratio of atoms in a compound.

For C4H10, the ratio of C:H is 4:10. You then simply this to 2:5 (divide 4 and 10 by 2) and then use the new ratio as your subscripts:

C2H5

H2(g)+p4(s)ph3(g) what the answer ?
disa [49]

Answer:

6H2 + P4→ 4PH3

Explanation:

Phosphorus has 4 in it and hydrogen has 3 in it. in order to balance it, we have to put 4 in front of phosphine so that the phosphorus on the product side has an equal amount as to the one on the reactant side.

the only one left to balance is hydrogen and so in order to balance it we put a 6 on h2 because the hydrogen in the product size becomes 12 (4 * 3).

therefore the hydrogen on the reactant side becomes 12 as well (6 * 2)
