<u>Answer:</u> The empirical and molecular formula of the compound is
and
respectively
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Mass of C = 3.758 g
Mass of H = 0.316 g
Mass of O = 1.251 g
To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:
- <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.
Moles of Carbon =
Moles of Hydrogen = 
Moles of Oxygen = 
- <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.
For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.078 moles.
For Carbon = 
For Hydrogen = 
For Oxygen = 
- <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.
The ratio of C : H : O = 4 : 4 : 1
The empirical formula for the given compound is 
For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.
The equation used to calculate the valency is:

We are given:
Mass of molecular formula = 130 g/mol
Mass of empirical formula = 68 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

Hence, the empirical and molecular formula of the compound is
and
respectively
<span>Spontaneous reactions need to be discovered first. Also, if reagents are transferred to the other cups used in the tests, it could contaminate them, leading to different colors being seen and the test results being invalid. Doing the reagent tests last ensure that the cups and reagents are only used on the substances that they are intended to.</span>
From the stoichiometry of the combustion reaction, we can see that 7.4 L of oxygen is consumed.
<h3>What is combustion?</h3>
Combustion is a reaction in which a substance is burnt in oxygen. The equation of the reaction is; C4H10O(l) + 6O2 (g) → 4CO2 (g) + 5H2O(l)
We can obtain the number of moles of CO2 from;
PV = nRT
n = 1.02 atm * 7.15 L/0.082 atm LK-1mol-1 * (125 + 273) K
n = 7.29 /32.6
n = 0.22 moles
If 6 moles of oxygen produces 4 moles of CO2
x moles of oxygen produces 0.22 moles of CO2
x = 0.33 moles
1 mole of oxygen occupies 22.4 L
0.33 moles of oxygen occupies 0.33 moles * 22.4 L/ 1 mole
= 7.4 L of oxygen
