2g sample of a sugar determined that it contain 0.8g carbon 0.13g hydrogen with the remainder being oxygendetermine the empirical formula of sugar?

There are then 1.07 grams of oxygen in the sample (1.07 + .13 + .8 = 2.0). Carbon has a molar mass of 6, oxygen is 8 and hydrogen is 1. This gives the molar ration of C:H:O at about 0.8/6:0.13/1:1.07/8, reduced to .13:.13:.13. Thus the empirical formula is CHO.


A 2.144-g sample of phosgene a compound used as a chemical warfare agent during World War 1 contains 0.260 g of carbon 0.347 g of oxygen and 1.537 g of chlorine. What is the empirical formula of this?

moles C = 0.260 g C x 1 mol/12 g = 0.0217 moles Cmoles O = 0.347 g O x 1 mol/16 g = 0.0217 moles Omoles Cl = 1.537 g Cl x 1 mol/35.5 g = 0.043 moles Clmole ratio = 1C : 1O : 2Cl so empirical formula = COCl2


Which sample contains the greatest number of atoms a sample of Mn that contains 3.29E plus 24 atoms or a 5.18 mole sample of you?

Which sample contains the greatest number of atoms. A sample of Mn that contains 3.29E+24 atoms or a 5.18 mole sample of I?The sample of _____ contains the greatest number of atoms.Answer:In order to compare the two samples, it is necessary to express both quantities in the same units. Since the question was phrased in terms of atoms, it is convenient to convert moles of I to atoms of I.The conversion factor between atoms and moles is Avogadro's number: 6.02 x 1023 "things" / molTo convert 5.18 moles of I to atoms of I:atoms I= 5.18 mol I6.02 x 1023 atoms I = 3.12E+24 atoms I1 mol IMultiply by atoms per mole. Moles cancel out.The sample of Mn contains 3.29E+24 atoms.Since 3.12E+24 is smaller than 3.29E+24, the sample of Mn contains the greatest number of atoms.
