Answer:
K₂CO₃
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of moles of K = 0.104mol
Number of moles of C = 0.052mol
Number of moles of O = 0.156mol
Method
From the given parameters, to calculate the empirical formula of the elements K, C and O, we reduce the given moles to the simplest fraction.
Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound and it differs from the molecular formula which is the actual formula of a compound.
- Divide the given moles through by the smallest which is C, 0.052mol.
- Then approximate values obtained to the nearest whole number of multiply by a factor to give a whole number ratio.
- This is the empirical formula
Solution
Elements K C O
Number of moles 0.104 0.052 0.156
Dividing by the
smallest 0.104/0.052 0.052/0.052 0.156/0.052

The empirical formula is K₂CO₃
Th actual yield of the reaction is 24.86 g
We'll begin by calculating the theoretical yield of the reaction.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol
Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g
Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol
Mass of NaCl from the balanced = 2 × 58.5 = 117 g
From the balanced equation above,
46 g of Na reacted to produce 117 g of NaCl.
Therefore,
11.5 g of Na will react to produce = (11.5 × 117) / 46 = 29.25 g of NaCl.
Thus, the theoretical yield of NaCl is 29.25 g.
Finally, we shall determine the actual yield of NaCl.
- Theoretical yield = 29.25 g
Actual yield = Percent yield × Theoretical yield
Actual yield = 85% × 29.25
Actual yield = 0.85 × 29.25 g
Actual yield = 24.86 g

The chemical element of atomic number 7, a colorless, odorless unreactive gas that forms
about 78 percent of the earth's atmosphere.
The molecular formula :
C₆H₁₄O₃PF
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
39.10% carbon, 7.67% hydrogen, 26.11% oxygen, 16.82% phosphorus, and 10.30% fluorine.
Required
The molecular formula
Solution
mol ratio :
C = 39.1 : 12 = 3.258
H = 7.67 : 1 = 7.67
O = 26.11 : 16 = 1.632
P = 16.82 : 31 = 0.543
F = 10.3 : 19 = 0.542
Divide by 0.542
C = 6
H : 14
O = 3
P = 1
F = 1
The empirical formula :
C₆H₁₄O₃PF
(The empirical formula)n = the molecular formula
(C₆H₁₄O₃PF)=184.1
(6.12+14.1+3.16+31+19)n=184.1
(184)n=184.1
n = 1
