To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:
58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C
9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H
31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O
Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:
4.9/1.96 = 2.5
9.9/1.96 = 6
1.96/1.96 = 1
Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.
So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.

A chemical change is characterized of the formation of new substances or a chemical reaction. There are a number of observations that we can see if this type of change happens. One would be the formation of gas bubbles, this indicates that one of the products is a gas. Another observation would be a formation of a precipitate in the solution, it would indicate that the new solid formed is not soluble in the solution. A permanent color change in the solution would also indicate a chemical change because it may be that the new substance that is formed has its own distinct color when in solution.
Saturated fatty acids exhibit a linear structure while unsaturated fatty acids bend, or kink, due to double bonds within the chemical foundation.
