To
determine the empirical formula of the compound given, we need to determine the ratio of each element in the compound. To do that we assume to have 100 grams sample
of the compound with the given composition. Then, we calculate for the number
of moles of each element. We do as follows:<span>
mass moles
C 56.79 4.73
H 6.56 6.50
O 28.37 1.77
N 8.28 0.59
Dividing the number of moles of each element with
the smallest value, we will have the empirical formula:
</span> moles ratio
C 4.73 / 0.59 8
H 6.50 / 0.59 11
O 1.77 / 0.59 3
N 0.59 / 0.59 1<span>
</span><span>
The empirical formula would be C8H11O3N.</span>
Answer:
0.550
Explanation:
The absorbance (A) of a substance depends on its concentration (c) according to Beer-Lambert law.
A = ε . <em>l</em> . c
where,
ε: absorptivity of the species
<em>l</em>: optical path length
A 45 mM phosphate solution (solution A) had an absorbance of 1.012.
A = ε . <em>l</em> . c
1.012 = ε . <em>l</em> . 45 mM
ε . <em>l</em> = 0.022 mM⁻¹
We can find the concentration of the second solution using the dilution rule.
C₁ . V₁ = C₂ . V₂
45mM . 11mL = C₂ . 20.0 mL
C₂ = 25 mM
The absorbance of the second solution is:
A = (ε . <em>l</em> ). c
A = (0.022 mM⁻¹) . 25 mM = 0.55 (rounding off to 3 significant figures = 0.550)

We are told that there are 1.55 x 10²³ molecules of Cl₂ and we need to calculate the mass of these molecules. We need to do several conversions. The easiest will be to convert the amount of molecules to the number of moles present. To do this, we need to use Avogadro's number which is 6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mole.
1.55 x 10²³ molecules / 6.022 x 10²³ molecules/mole = 0.257 moles Cl₂
Now that we have the moles of Cl₂ present, we can convert this value to a mass of Cl₂ by using the molecular mass of Cl₂. The molecular mass is 70.906 g/mol.
0.257 moles Cl₂ x 70.906 g/mol = 18.3 g Cl₂
Therefore, 1.55 x 10²³ molecules of Cl₂ will have a mass of 18.3 g.
