Answer:0.178 moles
Explanation: carbon trihydride seems to be an unusual name for the methyl group CH3–
ionic wt 15
moles = 2.67/15 = 0.178
Answer:
Oxidation state shows the total number of electrons which have been removed from an element (a positive oxidation state) or added to an element (a negative oxidation state) to get to its present state
Answer:
C₅H₁₀O₅
Explanation:
1. Calculate the mass of each element in 2.78 mg of X.
(a) Mass of C
(b) Mass of H
(c) Mass of O
Mass of O = 3.5 - 1.400 - 0.2349 = 1.87 g
2. Calculate the moles of each element
3. Calculate the molar ratios
Divide all moles by the smallest number of moles.
4. Round the ratios to the nearest integer
C:H:O = 1:2:1
5. Write the empirical formula
The empirical formula is CH₂O.
6. Calculate the molecular formula.
EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u
The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.
MF = (EF)ₙ
MF = (CH₂O)₅ = C₅H₁₀O₅
The molecular formula of X is C₅H₁₀O₅.
