The flask wanted to be charged with 1.6 grams of sugar. The empty flask was weighed on a balance and it was determined to weigh 330 grams . The weight we would expect when we add the sugar can be computed as follows:
weight of the empty flask = 330 grams
weight of the sugar = 1.6 grams
The weight of the flask after adding the sugar will be the sum of the weight of the sugar and the empty falsk
In the carbon tetrachloride molecule, four chlorine atoms are positioned symmetrically as corners in a tetrahedral configuration joined to a central carbon atom by single covalent bonds
The percentage by mass of each element is divided by its relative atomic mass. The lowest ratio is now observed. Each ratio is now divided by this lowest ratio and approximated to whole numbers. All these are shown in detail in the image attached.
