The empirical formula of a given compound is C6H9ON5.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Step 1: Obtain the mass of each element present in grams

                  Element % = mass in g = m

Carbon = 83.884 grams, Hydrogen = 10.486 grams, Oxygen = 18.640 grams, Nitrogen = 86.99 grams.

Step 2: Determine the number of moles of each type of atom present

                m/atomic mass = Molar amount (M)

Molar amount of carbon = (83.884 1 mol ) / 12 g = 6.99

Molar amount of hydrogen = (10.486  1 mol) / 1 g = 10.49

Molar amount of oxygen = (18.64  1 mol) / 16 g = 1.17

Molar amount of nitrogen = (86.99  1 mol) / 14 g = 6.21

Step 3: Divide the number of moles of each element by the smallest number of moles

            M / least M value = Atomic Ratio (R)

Atomic radius of carbon = 6.99 / 1.17 = 5.9 = 6

Atomic radius of hydrogen = 10.49 / 1.17 = 8.9 = 9

Atomic radius of oxygen = 1.17 / 1.17 = 1

Atomic radius of nitrogen = 6.21 / 1.17 = 5

Step 4: Convert numbers to whole numbers. This set of whole numbers are the subscripts in the empirical formula.

            R * whole number = Empirical Formula

The empirical formula of a given compound is C6H9ON5.

How many salt and water would you use to prepare 10% salt solution?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

We can make 10 percent solution by volume or by mass. A 10% of NaCl solution by mass has ten grams of sodium chloride dissolved in 100 ml of solution. Weigh 10g of sodium chloride. Pour it into a graduated cylinder or volumetric flask containing about 80ml of water.

SpyIntel [72]
To determine whether the amount of H2 in the lab is dangerous, we first need to know how much hydrogen gas is present in the room in units of percent by volume. For this particular problem, we cannot exactly determine since we do not know the total volume of the room. Hope this answers the question.
