Find the empirical formula of the compound ribose, a simple sugar often used as a nutritional supplement. A 14.229 g sample of r
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

CH2O

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to convert the masses of the elements to percentage compositions. This can be done by placing the mass of each element over the total mass multiplied by 100% . We can start with carbon.

C = 5.692/14.229 * 100 = 40%

O = 7.582/14.229 * 100 = 53.29%

H = 0.955/14.229 * 100 = 6.71%

We then proceed to divide each percentage composition by their atomic mass of 12, 16 and 1 respectively.

C = 40/12 = 3.333

O = 53.29/16 = 3.33

H = 6.71/2 = 6.71

Dividing by the smaller value which is 3.33

C = 3.33/3.33 = 1

O = 3.33/3.33= 1

H = 6.71/3.33 = 2

The empirical formula of the compound ribose is CH2O

Answer:

Succinic acid

Explanation:

The most common possibility is succinic acid

As it has decimals after whole no till hundredth it contains OH and C in most of the cases .

Let's check for succinic acid

  • C4H_6O_6
  • 4(12)+4(16)+6
  • 64+48+6
  • 118u

Yes approximately equal

Molecular formula is.
