Answer:
As Per Given Information
Number of moles SO₂ ( Sulphur dioxide ) is 0.30
We 've been asked to find the number of atoms in given moles of Sulphur dioxide .
Value of Avogadro Number is 6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹
For finding the number of atoms we will use formale
Putting the given value we obtain
So, the number of atoms in sulphur dioxide is 1.8066 × 10²³
The way you calculate the empirical formula is to firstly assume 100g. To find each elements moles you take each elements percentage listed, times it by one mole and divide it by its atomic mass. (ex: moles of K =55.3g x 1 mole/39.1g, therefore there is 1.41432225 moles of Potassium) Once you’ve completed this for every element you list each elements symbol beside it’s number of moles and divide by the smallest number because it can only go into its self once. After you’ve done this, you’ve found your empirical formula, which is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound. I’ve added an example of a empirical question I completed last semester :)
