Question
9. How many grams of CaCO3 are present in a
sample if there are 4.52 x 1024 atoms of carbon in that sample?
Determine the answers to the following on a separate sheet
of paper:
9. How many grams of CaCO3 are present in a
sample if there are 4.52 x 1024 atoms of carbon in that sample?
10. The empirical formula of an unknown substance is HSO4.
If the molecular weight of the substance 194 g/mol, what is its molecular
formula?
11. The empirical formula of an unknown substance is
determined to be CH2. What is its molecular formula if the
molecular weight is 84 g/mole?
12. Nicotine has an empirical formula of C5H7N
and a molecular weight of 162 g/mol. What is its molecular formula?
Explanation / Answer
mass of 4.52*10^24 atoms of carbon=(4.52*10^24)*12/6.022*10^23=90.06gm.
now molecular mass of CaCO3 is=100gm.
12 gm C present in100gm CaCO3.
90.06gm present in 100*90.06/12=750.5gm.
empirical mass=97.
194/97=2
so molecular formula=H2(SO4)2.
similarly for C7H14 and C10H14N2
