<u>Answer:</u> The empirical formula for the given compound is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Percentage of H = 5.80 %
Percentage of O = 23.02 %
Percentage of N = 20.16 %
Percentage of Cl = 51.02 %
Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.
Mass of H = 5.80 g
Mass of O = 23.02 g
Mass of N = 20.16 g
Mass of Cl = 51.02 g
To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:
- <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.
Moles of Hydrogen = 
Moles of Oxygen = 
Moles of Nitrogen = 
Moles of Chlorine = 
- <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.
For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 1.44 moles.
For Hydrogen = 
For Oxygen = 
For Nitrogen = 
For Chlorine = 
- <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.
The ratio of H : O : N : Cl = 4 : 1 : 1 : 1
Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is 
No. Of protons = mass no. - no. Of neutrons
No. Of protons = 67 - 37
= 30
No. Of electrons = 28
Zinc will have 30 protons and 28 electrons. So, it will have +2 charge
Symbol - Zn^+2
Answer:
All chemical equations goes to the law of conservation of mass which says that matter can not be destroyed nor created which means there has to be an equal amount of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation. I hope that helps, I'm learning this as well.
