The compound : C₄₀H₄₄N₄O

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound =mole ratio of the components

The principle of determining empirical formula

• Determine the mass ratio of the constituent elements of the compound.  

• Determine the mole ratio by dividing the percentage by the atomic mass

The mol ratio of composition : C : H : N : O

\tt \dfrac{80.66}{12}\div \dfrac{7.39}{1}\div \dfrac{9.39}{14}\div \dfrac{2.68}{16}\\\\6.722\div 7.39\div 0.671\div 0.1675\rightarrow divide~by~smallest(0.1675)\\\\40\div 44\div 4\div 1

What are the empirical and molecular formulas of a hydrocarbon if combustion of 2.10 g of the compound yields 6.59 g co2 and 2.7
mariarad [96]

 The  empirical  formula    of hydrocarbon is  CH2

The  molecular formula  of the  hydrocarbon is  C6H12


    <u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Hydrocarbon  is  made up  of carbon and hydrogen


<h3><u><em> </em></u>Empirical formula  calculation</h3>

 Step 1:  find  the  moles   CO2  and  H2O

moles =mass/molar mass

moles   of CO2 =  6.59 g/ 44 g/mol = 0.15 moles

moles of H2O = 2.70 g / 18 g/mol =  0.15  moles

Step 2: Find the moles  ratio  of Co2:H2O  by diving  each mole by smallest mole(0.15)

that  is  for  CO2 = 0.15/0.15  =1

              For H2O = 0.15/0.15 =1

therefore  the mole ratio  of Co2 : H2O = 1:1  which  implies that 1 mole of Co2  and 1  mole of H2O is  formed  during combustion reaction.


From the  the law of mass conservation the number  of atoms in reactant side  must  be equal to  number of  atoms  in product side

therefore  since  there 1 atom  of C  in product side there  must be 1 atom of C  in reactant  side.

In addition  there is 2 H atom in product  side  which should be the  same  in reactant side.  

From information above the empirical formula is therefore = CH2


Molecular formula  calculation

[CH2}n= 84 g/mol

[12+ (1x2)] n = 84 g/mol

14 n =  84 g/mol

n = 6

multiply the  each subscript  in CH2  by  6

 Therefore the molecular formula = C6H12

Seawater is composed of salt, sand, and water. is seawater a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture? explain
Umnica [9.8K]

A mixture is said to be homogeneous if its composition is uniform throughout the mixture. They are referred to as solutions. On the other hand, heterogeneous mixture does not have uniform composition. The substances present in the mixture have visible difference or phases.

Sea water is composed of salt, sand and water. Here, salt and water form homogeneous mixture but due to the presence of sand, the mixture is heterogeneous. Salt dissolves in water and the solution has uniform composition but sand does not dissolve in water, even after vigorous mixing, after some time it settles at the bottom resulting formation of layers. Thus, sea water containing salt, water and sand is a heterogeneous mixture.
