The molecular formula of organic solvent is <em>C6H12</em>
<h2>calculation</h2><h3>find the empirical formula first as in step 1 and 2</h3>
Step 1: f<em>ind the moles of C and H</em>
- moles = % composition/molar mass
- from periodic table molar mass of C= 12 g/mol while that of H= 1 g/mol
- moles is C is therefore = 85.6/12= 7. 13 moles
- moles of H= 14.4/1 - 14.4 moles
Step 2: <em>calculate the mole fraction by dividing each mole by smallest number of mole(7.13)</em>
H= 14.4/7.13 =2
the empirical formula is therefore = CH2
<h2>Then calculate the molecular formula from empirical formula</h2>
step 3: divide the grams molar mass by empirical formula mass
empirical formula mass = 12+(1 x2) = 14 g/mol
= 84.2/ 14 = 6
step 4: multiply each of the subscript within the empirical formula with the value gotten in step 3
- that is [CH2]6 = C6H12 therefore the molecular formula = <u>C6H12</u>
Explanation:
please write correct answer
A substance's molar mass is calculated by multiplying its relative atomic mass by the molar mass constant (1 g/mol). ... By multiplying a given mass by the molar mass, the amount of moles of the substance can be calculated.
1. Make a Prediction
2. Fill both beakers with water
3. Dissolve salt in one of the beakers
4. Place both in the freezer and observe
5. Write a report
(Always make the prediction first! That's a hypothesis!)
