Question

A fat is composed, in part, of long chains of carbon and hydrogen. This fat as a molecular

Answer 1

Answer:

$C_{54}H_{102}O_6$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the molar mass of the empirical formula is:

$MM_{empircal}=9*12.01+17*1.01+16.00=141.26g/mol$

Thus, the ratio of the molecular to the empirical formula is:

$\frac{847g/mol}{141.26g/mol} =6.0$

Thus, the molecular formula is six times the empirical formula:

$C_{54}H_{102}O_6$

Best regards!
