Acetylene (C2H2) has a triple bond between the two carbons. So 3 pairs of electrons. Biomed is talking about ethylene (C2H4).

Explanation:

Acetylene (systematic name: ethyne) is the synthetic compound with the formula C2H2. It is a hydrocarbon and the simplest alkyne. This colorless gas is widely utilized as a fuel and a chemical structure block. It is uncertain in its pure form and thus is usually marketed as a solution

What is the empirical formula of a compound that is made of 3.80g of phosphorus and 0.371g of hydrogen?

lys-0071 [83]

You start by diving each quantity given by the atomic wight of each element:

Phosphorus (P) $\frac{3.8}{31} =0.123$

Hydrogen (H) $\frac{0.371}{1} =0.371$

Then you divide by the lowest number:

$\frac{0.123}{0.123} = 1$ for phosphorus

$\frac{0.371}{0.123} = 3$ for hydrogen

So the empirical formula will be:

$PH_{3}$
