The empirical formula for the caproic acid, given the combustion analysis data is C₃H₆O
We'll begin bey obtaining the mass of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in the compound. This is illustrated below:
How to determine the mass of C
- Mass of CO₂ = 9.78 g
- Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
- Molar of C = 12 g/mol
- Mass of C =?
Mass of C = (12 / 44) × 9.78
Mass of C = 2.67 g
How to determine the mass of H
- Mass of H₂O = 20.99 g
- Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol
- Molar of H = 2 × 1 = 2 g/mol
- Mass of H =?
Mass of H = (2 / 18) × 4
Mass of H = 0.44 g
How to determine the mass of O
- Mass of compound = 4.30 g
- Mass of C = 2.67 g
- Mass of H = 0.44 g
- Mass of O =?
Mass of O = (mass of compound) – (mass of C + mass of H)
Mass of O = 4.30 – (2.67 + 0.44)
Mass of O = 1.19 g
<h3>How to determine the empirical formula </h3>
The empirical formula of the compound can be obtained as follow:
- C = 2.67 g
- H = 0.44 g
- O = 1.19 g
- Empirical formula =?
Divide by their molar mass
C = 2.67 / 12 = 0.2225
H = 0.44 / 1 = 0.44
O = 1.19 / 16 = 0.074
Divide by the smallest
C = 0.2225 / 0.074 = 3
H = 0.44 / 0.0744 = 6
O = 0.074 / 0.074 = 1
Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is C₃H₆O

#SPJ1
Answer:
0.0970 M
Explanation:
Remember this equation:
mol/M x V
Convert it so that you can get M.
M=mol/V
Convert the 2.14 grams of H2SO4 into mols
=0.0218
Convert mL to L
225/1000
=0.225
Plug it in.
0.0218/0.225
=0.0970 M
Ammonium perchlorate appears as a white, crystalline solid or powder. Classified as a division 1.1 explosive if powdered into particles smaller than 15 microns in diameter or if powdered into larger particles but thoroughly dried. Does not readily burn, but will burn if contaminated by combustible material. May explode under prolonged exposure to heat or fire. Used to make rocket propellants, explosives, pyrotechnics, as an etching and engraving agent, and in analytical chemistry.
