Question

A compound Contains 4.07%
Hydrogen, 24. 24%. Carbon and 71.65%
molar mass is
98. 96 g. Find Emphirical and
molecular formula.
chlorine
its​

Answer 1

Answer:

step 1

Divide the given percentages of atoms with their molecular masses

H---4.07/1 =4.07

C---24.27/12 =2.02

Cl--71.65/35.5=2.01

step 2

divide all values with the lowest value obtained.

H---4.07/2.01=2

C---2.02/2.01=1

Cl---2.01/2.01=1

therefore the empirical formula is

CH

Cl

WEIGHT OF EMPIRICAL FORMULA=12+2+35.5=49.5

Given molecular weight =98.96 which is double of empirical weight .therefore molecular formula is C
