Basis of the calculation: 100g
For Carbon:
Mass of carbon = (100 g)(0.80) = 80 g
Number of moles of carbon = (80 g)(1 mole / 12g) = 20/3
For Hydrogen:
Mass of hydrogen = (100 g)(0.20) = 20 g
Number of moles of hydrogen = (20 g)(1 mole / 1 g) = 20
Translating the answer to the formula of the substance,
C20/3H20
Dividing the answer,
CH3
The molar mass of the empirical formula is:
12 + 3 = 15 g/mol
Since, the molar mass given for the molecular formula is 30.069 g/mol, the molecular equation is,
C2H6
ANSWER: C2H6
Salinity has units of grams NaCl or salt per kilogram solution. We can use the density given and the molar mass of the salt to convert from salinity to molarity. We do as follows:
( 5.6 g / kg ) ( 1.03 kg / L ) ( 1 mol / 58.44 g ) = 0.0987 mol NaCl / L
