CH3 is the empirical formula for the compound.
A sample of a compound is determined to have 1.17g of Carbon and 0.287 g of hydrogen.
The number of atom or moles in the compound is
1.17 g C X 1 mol of C / 12.011 g C = 0.097411 mol of C.
0.287 g H x 1 mol of H / 1 g H = 0.28474 mol H.
This compound contains 0.097411 mol of carbon and 0.28474 mol of Hydrogen.
So we can represent the compound with the formula C0.974H0.284.
Subscripts in formulas can be made into whole numbers by multiplying the smaller subscript by the larger subscript.
we can divide 0.284 by 0.0974.
0.284 / 0.0974 = 3.
So here, Carbon is one and hydrogen is 3.
We can write the above formula as a CH3.
Hence the empirical formula for the sample compound is CH3.

Answer: For 1 mole of a single atom it is equal to its molar mass. And a single atom, 1 mole is equal to the Avogadro's Number.
Explanation: The relationship can be expressed through the following:
1 mole = molar mass of an atom/ compound
1 atom x 1 mole / 6.022x10^23 atoms
You need the set of reactions that goes from ammonia to nitric acid.

1) 4NH3(g)+5O2(g)-->4NO(g)+6H2O(g)
2) 2NO(g)+O2(g)-->2NO2(g)
3) 3NO2(g)+H2O(l)-->2HNO3(aq)+NO(g)
State the ratio of moles of HNO3 to NH3:
4 moles of NH3 produce 4 mole of NO,
4 moles of NO produce 4 moles of NO2
4 moles of NO2 produce 4 * (2 / 3) moles of HNO3 = 8/3 moles of HNO3.
=> (8/3) moles HNO3 : 4 moles NH3
Calculate the number of moles of HNO3 in 900.00 l of 0.140 M solution
M = n / V => n = M * V = 0.140 M * 900.00 liter = 126 moles HNO3
Use proportions:
(</span><span>8/3) moles HNO3 / 4 moles NH3 = 126 moles HNO3 / x
=> x = 126 moles HNO3 * 4 moles NH3 / (8/3 moles HNO3) = 189 moles NH3
Convert moles to grams:
molar mass NH3 = 14 g/mol + 3 * 1g/mol = 17 g/mol
mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass = 189 moles * 17 g/mol = 3213 g
Answer: 3213 g.

Answer:
Explanation:
The positive (protons) and negative (electrons) charges balance each other in a neutral atom, which has a net zero charge. Because protons and neutrons each have a mass of 1, the mass of an atom is equal to the number of protons and neutrons of that atom.
