8 0

Explanation:

Let the mass of isoamyl acetate be 100g.

Moles of Carbon = 60.58/12 = 5.048mol

Moles of Hydrogen = 7.07/1 = 7.07mol

Moles of Oxygen = 32.28/16 = 2.018mol

Mole Ratio of C : H : O

= 5.048 : 7.07 : 2.018

= 5 : 7 : 2.

Hence the empirical formula of isoamyl acetate is C5H7O2.

Briefly explain why there is a constant temperature plateau in the cooling curve
iVinArrow [24]
This plateau is where a phase change occurs. Likely, this cooling curve observes the changing of a liquid into a solid (so that the temperature is quantifiable). As something cools, it’s losing energy to the surroundings; when a phase change occurs, like liquid to solid, energy isn’t lost directly from the atom, but instead the energy maintained by free motion of the atom is used. This lack of motion reduces it into a lattice (all while maintaining a constant internal energy), finalizing the phase change, after which energy is lost directly from the atom again.
