Answer:
Explanation:
When percentage composition is given, and asked for the empirical formula, it is simplest to assume 100 g of material. Thus,
Mass C = 40.92 g. Moles C = 40.92 g x 1 mole/12 g = 3.41 moles C
Mass H = 4.58 g. Moles H = 4.58 g x 1 mole/1.0 g = 4.58 moles H
Mass O = 54.50 g. Moles O = 54.50 g x 1 mole/16 g = 3.41 moles O
Now, we want to get the moles into whole numbers, so we begin by dividing all by the smallest, i.e. divide all values by 3.41.
Moles C = 3.41/3.41 = 1
Moles H = 4.58/3.41 = 1.34
Moles O = 3.41/3.41 = 1
Now, in order to get 1.34 to be a whole number we multiply it (and all others) by 3
Moles C = 1x3 = 3
Moles H = 1.34x3 = 4
Moles O = 1x3 = 3
Empirical Formula
Answer is: Prepare to measure pH change.
For example for strong acid-base titration, sodium hydoxide and hydrochloric can be used.
Balanced chemical reaction: HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O.
In this reaction pH of equivalence point will be always 7.
Equivalence point is the point which there is stoichiometrically equivalent amounts of acid and base.
Chemist can draw pH curve (graph showing the change in pH of a solution, which is being titrated) for titration and determine equivalence point.
Near equivalence point indicator should change color, so we must pick indicator who change color near pH of equivalence point.
Neutralization reaction is the reaction between acid and base.
There the neutralization reaction is:
HBr + LiOH ----------> LiBr + H2O.
