3.07g H2
27.4/26.98/2x3x1.01x2=3.07
3 covalent bonds (there are 2 electrons in the first orbital and 5 in the second. You still have room for three more)
Answer:
true. I think
Explanation:
A chemical formula shows the atoms a molecule is made of.

First, convert each percentage to grams: 38.7g, 9.70g, and 51.6g.
Next, calculate the number of moles of each element, based on the number of grams given.
C = 3.23 mol
H = 8.91 mol
O = 3.23 mol
Set up the ratio of moles of each element:
C3.34H9.70O3.23. Convert the decimals to whole numbers by dividing by the smallest subscript, 3.23.
The empirical formula is CH3O.
Now, compute the formula mass, which is 31. Finally, divide the molecular mass by the formula mass, 62/31 = 2. Multiple the subscripts by 2 to get the molecular formula.
