Question
The molar mass and empirical formula of several compounds are listed. Find the molecular formula of each compound.a. C4H9, 114.22 g>mol b. CCl, 284.77 g>molc. C3H2N, 312.29 g>mol
Step 1
For compound a, the empirical formula is C4H9. The molar mass of carbon (C) is approximately 12.01 g/mol and the molar mass of hydrogen (H) is approximately 1.01 g/mol. Therefore, the molar mass of the empirical formula is (4*12.01) + (9*1.01) = 57.09 Show more…
