The empirical formula of the compound is C. NiF₂.
<em>Step 1</em>. Calculate the <em>moles of each element</em>
The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles.
So, our job is to calculate the molar ratio of Ni to F.
Moles of Ni = 9.11 g Ni × (1 mol Ni /(58.69 g Ni) = 0.1552 mol Ni
Moles of F = 5.89 g F × (1 mol F/19.00 g F) = 0.3100 mol F
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of the elements
Divide each number by the smallest number of moles
Ni:F = 0.1552:0.3100 = 1:1.997 ≈ 1:2
<em>Step 3</em>: Write the <em>empirical formula</em>
EF = NiF₂
First write all of the compounds/atoms in either side then fill in existing values and balance
Na- 1
Br- 1
Ca- 1
Cl- 2
Na- 1
Cl- 1
Ca-1
Br-2
Balance to get
2NaBr+CaCl2=2NaCl+CaBr2
Answer:
0.087 moles of water
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of molecules of water = 5.24×10²² molecules
Number of moles of water = ?
Solution:
The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.
1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water
5.24×10²² molecules × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
0.87×10⁻¹ mol
0.087 mol
Avogadro number:
It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance. The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.
