Answer:
Molecular formula = C₅H₁₀
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Empirical formula of compound => CH₂
Molar mass of compound = 70.1 amu
Molecular formula of compound =...?
The molecular formula of a compound is usually a multiple (n) of the empirical formula i.e
Molecular formula = [CH₂]ₙ
Thus, to obtain the molecular formula of the compound, we must first determine the value of n. The value of n can be obtained as follow:
[CH₂]ₙ = 70.1
[12 + (2×1)]n = 70.1
[12 + 2]n = 70.1
14n = 70.1
Divide both side by 14
n = 70.1 / 14
n = 5
Molecular formula = [CH₂]ₙ
Molecular formula = [CH₂]₅
Molecular formula = C₅H₁₀
Thus, the Molecular formula of the compound is C₅H₁₀.
