What is a mole?

Chemistry

It's hard to relate a mole to carbon or sulfur. Imagine if I walked up to you and said, "What's the relation between a dozen and donuts?"

A mole is a form of measurement for atoms, more specifically, 6.02 * 10^23 atoms. I suppose you could relate it to Carbon or Sulfur, since the number of atoms of each are usually measured in moles.

Carbon and Sulfur don't have a set number of moles (Just like donuts don't have to be a dozen), so it's hard to answer your second question.
In the atomic table, the number you see under the element is the molar mass, which is the weight of an a mole of the element. In this way, I guess there's a mole of Carbon and Sulfur present, if we're looking at the periodic table.

The empirical formula of a compound is CH2O and its molecular weight is 90.09 g/mol. Determine the molecular formula.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer : The molecular formula of the compound will be, C_{3}H_{6}O_3

Explanation :

Empirical formula : It is the simplest form of the chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Molecular formula : it is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}

As we are given that the empirical formula of a compound is CH_2O and the molar mass of compound is, 90.09 gram/mol.

The empirical mass of CH_2O = 1(12) + 2(1) + 1(16) = 30 g/eq

n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}

n=\frac{90.09}{30}=3

Molecular formula = (CH_2O)_n=(CH_2O)_3=C_{3}H_{6}O_3

Thus, the molecular formula of the compound will be, C_{3}H_{6}O_3
