What is the molecular formula for a compound that has the empirical formula of hgcl and a molar mass of 472.2g/mol?

1 answer:

4 0

This problem is quite easy once you start thinking about it.

If the empirical formula is HgCl (which has a molar mass of 271.5 g/mol)

And the molar mass of the molecular compound is 472.2 g/mol, just divide the two numbers. You'll get 1.74. And since this number is a decimal, this question isn't solvable. You've either provided the wrong empirical formula or the wrong molar mass.

The ones with 8 protons

Explanation:

Since there are two of them with 8 protons, we can assume they are the same element. The first 8 proton element has 10 neutrons while the second has 11. This makes them isotopes of one another

Allicin contains 59.9 g of carbon, 21.7 g of hydrogen, 24.4 g of oxygen, and sulfur. What is the mass percent of sulfur in a 162

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The molar mass of Allicin is 162 which means that you can just divide 64 by 162 since 64 is the mass of sulfur in 1 mole of Allicin (32×2=64). You should get 0.395 which is 39.5%
