Asapp please
The percent composition of an unknown substance is 75.42% Carbon, 6.63 % Hydrogen,
8.38 % Nitrogen, and 9.57 % Oxygen. If its molar mass is 334.0 g/mol what is its empirical and
molecular formula?


Sagot :

The empirical and  molecular formula : C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂

Further explanation

Given

The percent composition of an unknown substance is 75.42% Carbon, 6.63 % Hydrogen, 8.38 % Nitrogen, and 9.57 % Oxygen

Required

The empirical and  molecular formula

Solution

C : 75.42 : 12 = 6.285

H : 6.63 : 1 = 6.63

N : 8.38 : 14 = 0.599

O : 9.57 : 16 = 0.598

Divide by 0.598

C : H : N : O = 10.5 : 11 : 1 : 1 = 21 : 22 : 2 : 2

The empirical formula : C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂

(C₂₁H₂₂N₂O₂)n = 334

(334)n=334

n = 1
