Aluminum sulfide : Al₂S₃
ratio cation : anion = 2 : 3
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Compound of Aluminium
Required
cations anions ratio
Solution
Salt can be formed from cations and anions which have their respective charges.
In the chemical compound formula these charges are crossed with each other
For aluminum it has a +3 charge
1. Aluminum carbide : Al₄C₃
ratio cation : anion = 4 : 3
2. Aluminum chloride : AlCl₃
ratio cation : anion = 1 : 3
3. Aluminum sulfide : Al₂S₃
ratio cation : anion = 2 : 3
4. Aluminum nitride : AlN
ratio cation : anion = 1 : 1
Answer:
Carbon : chemical symbol is "C"
Chlorine: chemical symbol is"Cl"
The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇
The molecular formula : C₁₀Cl₃₅
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
8.81 g Carbon
91.2 g Chlorine
Molar Mass: 1362.5 g/mol
Required
The empirical formula and molecular formula
Solution
Mol ratio :
C = 8.81 g : 12.011 g/mol =0.733
Cl = 91.2 g : 35,453 g/mol = 2..572
Divide by 0.733
C : Cl = 1 : 3.5 = 2 : 7
The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇
(The empirical formula)n = the molecular formula
(C₂Cl₇)n = 1362.5
(2x12.011+7x35.453)n=1362.5
(272.193)n=1362.5
n = 5
