The number of H atoms in 3(NH₄)₂CrO₄ = 24
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.
A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.
(empirical formula) n = molecular formula
Subscripts in the chemical formula indicate the number of atoms
The compound of 3(NH₄)₂CrO₄ ( 3 molecules of (NH₄)₂CrO₄ ) :
Number of H :
The empirical formula for the compound is - P₂O₅
the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound.
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound.
we have to first find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula
molecular mass - 283.89 g/mol
mass of empirical formula - 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 283.89 g/mol / 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 1.000
therefore empirical formula = molecular formula
molecular formula - P₂O₅
Answer:
One
Explanation:
An element is a pure substance in which there are only one kind of atom. Elements are distinct substances that cannot be split up into simpler substances.
Such substances consists of only one kind of atom. There are over a hundred known elements to date.
Generally, as a pure substance, the composition of an element is definite and they are homogenous in all parts.
