Question

A compound contains H=4.07%, c=24.47%and Ci=71.65% its molar mass is 99gram/mol find the molecular formula of its compound........​

Answer 1

Answer:

Strep 1 : Calculating relative number of atoms

a. Hydrogen

Percentage composition = 4.07 %

Atomic weight of hydrogen = 1

Relative number of atoms = \sf{\dfrac{4.07}{1}}

1

4.07

= 4.07

b. Carbon

Percentage comppsition = 24.47 %

Aomic weight of carbon = 12

Relative number of atoms = \sf{\dfrac{24.47}{12}}

12

24.47

= 2.02

c. Chlorine

Percentage comppsition = 71.65%

Atomic weight of chlorine = 35.5

Relative number of atoms = \sf{\dfrac{71.65}{35.5}}

35.5

71.65

= 2.01

Step 2 : Calculating Simplest ratio for each element

Simplest ratio is calculted by dividing all the values we got by the smallest value we got.

The smallest value we got is 2.01

a. Hydrogen

Simplest ratio = \sf{\dfrac{4.07}{2.01}}

2.01

4.07

\approx≈ 2

b. Carbon

Simplest ratio = \sf{\dfrac{2.02}{2.01}}

2.01

2.02

\approx≈ 1

c. Chlorine

Simplest ratio = \sf{\dfrac{2.01}{2.01}}

2.01

2.01

= 1

The empirical formula becomes CH₂Cl

Molecular weight of Empirical formula = 12 + 2(1) + 35.5 = 49.5

We are already given that molecular weight as 99.
