Answer:Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock that forms from the compaction of silt and clay-size mineral particles that we commonly call "mud." This composition places shale in a category of sedimentary rocks known as "mudstones." ... "Fissile" means that the rock readily splits into thin pieces along the laminations.
Explanation:
The combustion of an organic compound is mostly written as,
CaHbOc + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
where a, b, and c are supposed to be the subscripts of the elements C, H, and O in the compound. Determining the number of moles of C and H in the product which is the same as that in the compound,
(Carbon, C) : (561 mg) x (12/44) = 153 mg x (1 mmole/12 mg) = 12.75
(Hydrogen, H) : (306 mg) x (2/18) = 34 mg x (1 mmole/1 mg) = 34
Calculating for amount of O in the sample,
(oxygen, O) = 255 - 153 mg - 34 mg = 68 mg x (1mmole/16 mg) = 4.25
The empirical formula is therefore,
C(51/4)H34O17/4
C3H8O1
The molar mass of the empirical formula is 60. Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is,
C9H24O3
CO2 and NaCl are both compounds
