The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and
nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:
C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22
H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25
N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22
Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:
C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5
N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
So the empirical formula is:
CHN
Using Phosphoric acid will work perfectly for producing Hydrogen halides because its not an Oxidizing agent. ...
Using an ionic chloride and Phosphoric acid
H3PO4 + NaCl ==> HCl + NaH2PO4
H3PO4 + NaI ==> HI + NaH2PO4
H2SO4 + NaCl ==> HCl + NaHSO4
This method(Using H2So4) will work for all hydrogen hydrogen halide except Hydrogen Iodide and Hydrogen Bromide.
The Sulphuric acid won't be useful for producing Hydrogen Iodide because its an OXIDIZING AGENT. Whist producing the Hydrogen Iodide... Some of the Iodide ions are oxidized to Iodine.
