Answer:
THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA OF THE SUBSTANCE IS C2H5NO
Explanation:
The steps involved in calculating the empirical formula of this substance in shown in the table below:
Element Carbon Hydrogen Nitrogen Oxygen
1. % Composition 40.66 8.53 23.72 27.09
2. Mole ratio =
%mass/ atomic mass 40.66/12 8.53/1 23.72/14 27.09/16
= 3.3883 8.53 1,6943 1.6931
3. Divide by smallest
value (0.6931) 3.3883/1.6931 8.53/1.6931 1.6943/1.6931 1.6931/1.6931
= 2.001 5.038 1.0007 1
4. Whole number ratio 2 5 1 1
The empirical formula = C2H5NO
Opposing reactions are constantly occurring at equal rates
favoring the formation if fewer miles if gaseous products
One mole of a substance contains 6.02 × 10∧23 particles. Thus we first convert 89.2 g to moles. 1 mole of sodium contains 23 g
Hence 89.2 g = 89.2 / 23 g = 3.878 moles
Therefore, 3.878 × 6.02×10∧23 particles= 23.346 × 10∧23 particles
Hence 89.2 g of sodium contains 2.335 ×10∧24 particles
