The compound's molecular formula is C2H6. This is obtained by:
mass moles divided by smallest moles
C 32g 32/12 = 2.67 1
H 8g 8/1.01 = 7.92 approx. 3
Next, divide both terms by the smallest number of moles, 2.67. This gives 1 and 3. So the empirical formula is CH3 which has a molar mass of 15g/mol. Given the molar mass of the molecular formula as 30g/mole, we can calculate the factor by which to multiply the subscripts of CH3.
X = molar mass of molecular formula / molar mass of empirical formula = 30/15
X=2
So (CH3)2 is C2H6.
Density measures how tightly packed opposed to how heavy like water is denser than oil.
