Answer:
The empirical formula is, C4H4S
Explanation:
Number of moles of carbon = 1.119 g/ 44g/mol = 0.025 moles
Mass of Carbon= 0.025 moles × 12 g/ mole = 0.3 g
Number of moles of hydrogen = 0.229/18g/mol × 2 = 0.025 moles
Mass of hydrogen = 0.025 moles × 1 = 0.025 g
Number of moles of sulphur = 0.407g/ 64 g/mol = 0.0064 moles
Mass of sulphur= 0.0064 moles ×32 = 0.2 g
Now we obtain the mole ratios by dividing through by the lowest ratio.
C- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, H- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, S- 0.0064 moles/0.0064 moles
C4H4S
Answer:
Products
Explanation:
During a chemical reaction, there are the reactants (left side), and the products (right side).
A balanced equation is a prime example of the law of the conservation of mass as the number of atoms in the reactants is consistent with the number of atoms in the reactants meaning the amount of matter has not changed and no mass has been created or destroyed hence obeying the law.
