Answer:
Empirical CHO2
Molecular C2H2O4
Explanation:
To determine the formulas, firstly, we need to divide the percentage compositions by the atomic masses.
Kindly note that the atomic mass of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen are 12, 16 and 1 respectively. We proceed with the division as follows:
C = 26.7/12 = 2.225
H = 2.2/1 = 2.2
O = 71.1/16 = 4.44375
We then proceed to divide by the smallest value which is 2.2 in this case
C = 2.25/2.2 = 1
H = 2.2/2.2 = 1
O = 4.44375/2.2 = 2
Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2
We now proceed to get the molecular formula as follows
[12+ 1 + 16(2) ]n = 90.04
45n = 90.04
n = 90.04/45 = 2
The molecular formula is :
C2H2O4
Valence electrons are found AT THE OUTERMOST SHELL OF AN ATOM.
Valence electron refers to those electrons that are located furthest away from the nucleus of an atom, that is, they are found at the outermost shell. Valence electrons determine the chemical properties of an element and they are the only ones that get involved in chemical reactions with other elements.
They will repel due to their same charges
