73.40%
To express the efficiency of a reaction, you can calculate the percent yield using this formula: %yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100.
Answer:
The main purpose for converting numbers into scientific notation is to make calculations with surpisingly large or small numbers less complicated. Since zeros are not used to place the decimal point, all of the digits in a number in scientific notation are meaningful and easier to read. Hope this helps!

Answer:
Molecular formula = C₄H₁₂O₂
Explanation:
Given data:
Percentage of hydrogen = 13.80%
Percentage of carbon = 51.02%
Percentage of oxygen = 35.18%
Molecular formula = ?
Solution:
Number of gram atoms of H = 13.80 / 1.01 = 13.6
Number of gram atoms of O = 35.18 / 16 = 2.2
Number of gram atoms of C = 51.02 / 12 = 4.25
Atomic ratio:
C : H : O
4.25/2.2 : 13.6/2.2 : 2.2/2.2
2 : 6 : 1
C : H : O = 2 : 6 : 1
Empirical formula is C₂H₆O.
Molecular formula:
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass
Empirical formula mass = C₂H₆O = 46 g/mol
n = 88 / 46
n = 2
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
Molecular formula = 2 (C₂H₆O)
Molecular formula = C₄H₁₂O₂
