Answer:
The empirical formula is CH3O2
Explanation:
From The question, number of moles of CO2= 4.89/44=0.111mol
Number of moles of H2O=3/18= 0.1667moles
Since 1mole of CO2 contains 1mole of carbon and 2 moles of O2,
Implies that there 0.111 moles of C and 0.222moles of O2
Similarly also 0.1667moles of water contains 2 moles of H2 hence = 0.333 moles of H2
Dividing by smallest number= 0.111mol
For C = 0.111/0.111= 1
For H = 0.333/ 0.111= 3
For O = 0.222/0.111= 2
Hence the empirical formula= CH3O2
If I understand this right, the two elements are Nickel and Copper, elements 28 and 28, respectively. A nickel is worth 5 cents, and a penny, originally comprised of copper, is worth one - the total being six cents.
Yes it’s for the good of ways
