TRUE its glucose if they have sunlight
Answer;
C7H14O2
Solution;
Isobutyl contains , oxygen, carbon and hydrogen (total mass is 1.152 g)
Mass of carbon = 12/44 × 2.726 g
= 0.743455 g
Mass of Hydrogen = 2/18 × 1.116 g
= 0.124 g
Mass of oxygen = 1.152 - (0.7435 + 0.124)
= 0.2845 g
Moles of carbon ; 0.7435/12 = 0.06196 moles
Moles of hydrogen; 0.124/1 = 0.124 moles
Moles of oxygen; 0.2845/16 = 0.01778 moles
Ratios ; 0.06196/0.01778 ; 0.124/0.01778 : 0.01778/0.01778
= 3.5 : 7.0 : 1
To make them whole numbers ; we multiply the ratios by 2 to get;
(3.5 : 7.0 : 1 )2 = 7 : 14 : 2
Thus, the empirical formula of Isobutyl propionate is C7H14O2
The answer from this questions is the letter
