What is this empirical formula - C5H8NO4?

Answer 1

C4h5n2o

Answer 2

For C5H8NO4 , this is the empirical formula. Reason you cannot reduce the ratios of atoms in the molecule.

As an example

Hydrogen peroxide.

Molecular formaulr ; H2O2

Empirical Formula ; HO

Because the ratio can be reduced from '2' to '1'.

Since in the given molecule , there is only one 'N' , then the ratio of atoms cannot be reduced any further.

Answer 3

The empirical formula should have the lowest subscript numbers possible, consistent with the actual proportions of atoms present. In the formula given, all the subscripts are divisible by 4; therefore, the empirical formula should be C4H8O2N.

Answer 4

The empirical formula C5H8NO4 represents the simplest ratio of atoms in a compound. In this case, it suggests that the compound consists of 5 carbon atoms, 8 hydrogen atoms, 1 nitrogen atom, and 4 oxygen atoms. However, without more information, we cannot determine the specific compound it represents.

Answer 5

This is the formula for glutamate. A polyatomic ion with a charge of negative 1.

Answer 6

that is empirical formula but percent mass of each element is:

• Carbon ==> 60.00%
• Hydrogen ==> 4.44%
• Oxygen ==> 35.56%

Answer 7

The smallest no in formula is 4 so by dividing with 4 the empirical formula of compounds becomes, C4H8O2N1

Answer 8

C8H10N4O2

the smallest subscript that can divide evenly into each subscript is two. So divide the molecular formula by two and the empirical formula is C4H5N4O.

Answer 9

C4h5n2o
