Here's the Answer !
Atomic number = no. of electrons = no. of protons, therefore :
and mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons
so,
The answer is C , hope I helped
Answer:
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.
Explanation:
Given data:
Percentage of calcium =29.44%
Percentage of sulfur = 23.55%
Percentage of oxygen = 47.01%
Empirical formula = ?
Solution:
Number of gram atoms of Ca = 29.44 / 40 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of S = 23.55 / 32 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of O = 47.01 / 16 = 3
Atomic ratio:
Ca : S : O
0.74/0.74 : 0.74/0.74 : 3/0.74
1 : 1 : 4
Ca : S : O = 1 : 1 : 4
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.

Always. You never know what kind of chemical you’re dealing with and how powerful it is.
