To get the molecular formula we use the individual atomic masses of the atoms making the molecule. Hence, to get the factor by which the empirical formula is multiplied, we divide molar mass by the total of the mass of the atoms making the empirical formula.
(C2H7) the mass of one carbon atoms is 12 so two atoms add up to 24. The mass of one hydrogen atom is 1 a.m.u thus 7 atoms give a total of 7 a.m.u. The sum of the two types of atoms is 24+7= 31
Molar mass=62.18
62.18/31=2.0
Hence, (C2H7) 2=C4H14

The shape of the sulfur dioxide molecule, where sulfur is the central atom is
fgiga [73]

Answer:

bent

Explanation:

The molecular formula of sulfur dioxide is written as SO₂

The molecular geometry of sulfur dioxide can be determined using the Lewis structure.

The Lewis structure shows the distribution of electrons around the atoms of a given compound such as sulfur dioxide (SO₂).

In this compound, sulfur is the central atom with 6 valence electrons.

The sulfur is bonded covalently with two oxygen atoms, each with 6 valence electrons. Oxygen contributes 2 lone pairs while sulfur which is the central atom contributes 1 lone pair of electrons in the bond.

The bond angle between the two oxygen atoms and the central sulfur atom is approximately 120⁰, as a result of the bent shape of the molecular structure.
