Question

The empirical formula of a compound is ch2cl then its molecular mass cannot be

Answer 1

The empirical formula of a compound is CH2Cl. If the molecular mass of the compound is 99 g, what is the molecular formula of the compound?

empirical formula of a compound is CH2Cl

$Molar mass of CH_2Cl = M_C + 2 M_H + M_Cl$

$= 12 + 2 + 35.5 = 49.5 g /mol$

Empirical formula mass of given compound = 49.5 g.

Now, given Molecular mass = 99 g

$Therefore n = 99 /49.5 = 2$

Therefore, molecular formula of compound $= (CH_2Cl)_2$

Answer 2

Answer:

59.5

Explanation:12+1×2+35.5=59.5
