The empirical formula is C₇H₆O₂.
Assume that you have 100 g of the compound.
Then you have 68.84 g C and 4.962 g H.
Mass of O = (100 – 68.84 – 4.962) g = 26.20 g O.
Now, we must convert these masses to moles and find their ratios.
From here on, I like to summarize the calculations in a table.
<u>Element</u> <u>Mass/g</u> <u>Moles</u> <u>Ratio</u> <u> ×2</u> <u>Integers</u>
C 68.84 5.732 3.501 7.001 7
H 4.962 4.923 3.006 6.012 6
O 26.20 1.638 1 2 2
The empirical formula is C₇H₆O₂.
Yeah, what? I don't think Brainly knows that. Maybe you should taste the filtered salt water and find out the answer.
Answer:
<h2>0.05 moles</h2>
Explanation:
To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

where n is the number of moles
N is the number of entities
L is the Avogadro's constant which is
6.02 × 10²³ entities
From the question we have

We have the final answer as
<h3>0.05 moles</h3>
Hope this helps you
Answer: The ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 :31
Explanation:
Combustion is a chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons are burnt in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
The balanced combustion reaction is,:

Thus the ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 : 31
