Answer:
Al2O3.2SiO2.2H2o
Molar masses
Molar mass of Al2O3 =102 g/mol
Molar mass of SiO2 = 60 g/mol
Molar mass of H2O = 18 g/mol
We can consider the percentages as masses:-
Moles of Al2O3 = 39.5/102 = 0.38
Moles of SiO2 = 46.6/60 = 0.78
Moles of H2O = 13.9/18 = 0.77
Mole ratio
Moles of Al2O3 = 0.38/0.38 = 1 = 1
Moles of SiO2 =0.78/0.38 = 2.05 = 2
Moles of H2O = 0.77/0.38 = 2.03 = 2
The empirical formula:-
