Given the volume of HCl solution = 30.00 mL
Molarity of HCl solution = 0.1000 M
Molarity, moles and volume are related by the equation:
Molarity =
Converting volume of HCl from mL to L:
Calculating moles of HCl from volume in L and molarity:
The final moles would be reported to 4 sig figs. So the correct answer will be 0.03000 mol HCl
Correct option: C. 0.03000mol
The way you calculate the empirical formula is to firstly assume 100g. To find each elements moles you take each elements percentage listed, times it by one mole and divide it by its atomic mass. (ex: moles of K =55.3g x 1 mole/39.1g, therefore there is 1.41432225 moles of Potassium) Once you’ve completed this for every element you list each elements symbol beside it’s number of moles and divide by the smallest number because it can only go into its self once. After you’ve done this, you’ve found your empirical formula, which is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound. I’ve added an example of a empirical question I completed last semester :)
