In beta decay the atomic number increases by 1
Answer:
C2H2O4
Explanation:
To get the molecular formula, we first get the empirical formula. This can be done by dividing the percentage compositions by the atomic masses. The percentage compositions are shown as follows :
C = 26.86%
H = 2.239%
O = 100 - ( 26.86 + 2.239) = 70.901%
We then proceed to divide by their atomic masses. Atomic mass of carbon is 12 a.m.u , H = 1 a.m.u , O = 16 a.m.u
The division is as follows:
C = 26.86/12 = 2.2383
H = 2.239/1 = 2.239
O = 70.901/16 = 4.4313
We now divide each by the smallest number I.e 2.2383
C = 2.2383/2.2383 = 1
H = 2.239/2.2383 = 1
O = 4.4313/2.2383 = 1.98 = 2
Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2.
To get the molecular formula, we use the molar mass .
(CHO2)n = 90
We add the atomic masses multiplied by n.
(12 + 1 + 2(16))n = 90
45n = 90
n = 90/45 = 2.
Thus , the molecular formula is C2H2O4
