Step 1
Given empirical formula CH: Carbon atomic mass = 12.01 g/mol Hydrogen atomic mass = 1.01 g/mol Empirical formula mass = (1 x 12.01) + (1 x 1.01) = 13.02 g/mol Show more…

Styrene, the building block of polystyrene, consists of only $\mathrm{C}$ and $\mathrm{H}$. If $0.438 \mathrm{g}$ of styrene is burned in oxygen and produces $1.481 \mathrm{g}$ of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ and $0.303 \mathrm{g}$ of $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O},$ what is the empirical formula of styrene?
