A Compound contains 4.07% hydrogen,24.27% carbon and 71.65% chlorine. Its molar mass is 99 gram/mol. Find the molecular formula of it's compound?
→ Percentage = 4.07 %
→ Atomic weight = 1
→ Ratio = 4.07
→ Simple ratio = 2
→ Percentage = 24.4%
→ Atomic weight = 12
→ Ratio = 2
→ Simple ratio = 1
→ Percentage = 71.65%
→ Atomic weight = 35.5
→ Ratio = 2
→ Simple ratio = 1
Empirical formula = CH2Cl
Molar mass = 98.96
Empirical formula weight = 49.5
⠀= 98.96 / 49.5
⠀= 1.99
⠀≈ 2
⠀= 2 × ( CH2Cl )
⠀= C2H4Cl2
∴ The required molecular formula of the compound is C2H4Cl2.

Answer:
Calculate moles of each element - divide
% by atomic mass
C=19.998/12.011 = 1.665
H= 3.331/ 1.008 = 3.305
N= 23.320 / 14.007 = 1.665
O= 53.302 / 15.999 = 3.332
Divide through by smallest
C=1
H=2
N=1
O = 2 ( small rounding is accepted)
Empirical formula = CH2NO2
Formula mass = 12.011 +1.008'2 + 14.007 + 15.999:2 = 60.03 g/formula unit
Formula units in 1 molecule = 120.07 /
60.03 = 2
Molecular formula = ( CH2NO2)2 = C2H4N204 (1,2-dinitroethane.)
