The empirical formula CH₂O has a mass [(12 × 1) + (1 × 2) + (16 × 1)] = 30 g/mol

If the empirical formula is 30 g/mol,
and the molecular formula is 60 g/mol

Then the multiple is = 60 g/mol ÷ 30 g/mol 
                                = 2

Therefor the molecular formula is 2(CH₂O) = C₂H₄O₂   (OPTION 2)

If the reaction is at dynamic equilibrium at 500 K, which statement applies to the given chemical system?
Alenkinab [10]

The correct option is this: THE CONCENTRATION OF THE PRODUCTS AND THE REACTANTS DO NOT CHANGE.

A reversible chemical reaction is said to be in equilibrium if the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction. At this stage, the concentrations of the products and the reactants remain constant, that is, there is no net change in the concentration even though the reacting species are moving between the forward and the backward reaction.
