Answer:

C_3H_6

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the empirical formula is the smallest representation of the molecular formula, it is known that the times in which the empirical formula is into the molecular formula is a whole number and is computed by dividing the molar mass of the molecular formula by that of the empirical formula as shown below:

\frac{42.08g/mol}{12.01+1.01x2}= \frac{42.08g/mol}{14.03g/mol}=3

Thus, the molecular formula times the empirical formula by 3 to obtain:

C_3H_6

Regards!

what does the statment mean. The properties of salts are different from the properties of the elements that go into making them
Olegator [25]
Think of it this way,
Mix Iron and sulphur in a bowl. How do you separate them? Use a magnet right. Yes.

Now, mix the iron and sulphur together but know, heat them up. Let them cool for a while. After that, use a magnet to separate. You cant. This is because the compound (FeS) now has a different property from its original components.

Apply this theory onto salts.
