Chapter 3.6, Problem 1RC
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given that combustion analysis of 1.05 g of compound containing only C and H produces 3.30 g CO2 and 1.35 g H2O.  Molar mass of the compound is 70 g.  Molecular formula of the compound has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Empirical formula of a compound represents the proportion of the elements in a compound irrespective of the numbers of atoms arranged in the molecule of the compound.

Name of compound based on its empirical formula is empirical name of the compound.

Molecular formula of a compound represents the number of atoms present in the molecule irrespective of the arrangement of those atoms and structure.

Molecular formula of a compound is derived from empirical formula mass and molar mass of the compound as,

molar massempirical molar mass
