How do you find the molecular formula from the empirical formula?

Chemistry

miskamm [114]3 years ago

To find them you would have numbers of the elements in percentage or grams then you divide them by their molar mass to get their moles. From there you divide by the smallest number. Round it to two or one sig fig. If you have a number that is for ex. 2.5 you multiply it by 2 to make it whole as well the other whole numbers. Then to find the molecular formula the problem must give you another molar mass and using your empirical formula convert it to its molar mass then you divide them, larger number over smaller number. You should get a number round it to 1 sig fig. Now you use that number and multiply the subscripts on the empirical formula to get the molecular formula.

What causes the lines in the spectrum for elements? a continuous release of energy from the heated element a quantum absorption
solmaris [256]

Answer:a quantum absorption of energy

Explanation:

Bohr’s model explains the spectral lines .While the electron of the atom remains in the ground state, its energy is unchanged. When the atom absorbs one or more quanta of energy, the electron moves from the ground state orbit to an excited state and when the atom relaxes back to a lower energy state, it releases energy that is again equal to the difference in energy of the two orbits.

Given the following equation, what is the correct form of the conversion factor needed to convert the number of moles of O₂ to t
djverab [1.8K]

Answer : The correct option is (c) \frac{2\text{ mole of }Fe_2O_3}{3\text{ mole of }O_2}

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

4Fe(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3(s)

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 3 moles of O_2 react to give 2 mole of Fe_2O_3

So, 1 mole of O_2 react to give \frac{2\text{ mole of }Fe_2O_3}{3\text{ mole of }O_2} moles of Fe_2O_3

Thus, the conversion factor needed to convert the number of moles of O_2 to the number of moles of Fe_2O_3 produced is \frac{2\text{ mole of }Fe_2O_3}{3\text{ mole of }O_2}

Hence, the correct option is (c) \frac{2\text{ mole of }Fe_2O_3}{3\text{ mole of }O_2}
