- 3.98 The characteristic odor of decaying flesh is due to the presence of various nitrogen-containing compounds. One such compound, called putrescine, was analyzed and found to contain 54.49% carbon, 13.72% hydrogen, and 31.78% nitrogen by mass. If the molar mass of putrescine is known to be between 85 and 105, what is its molecular formula?arrow_forwardWhich molecule has a molecular mass of 28.05 amu?arrow_forwardCalculate the mass in grains of hydrogen present in 2.500 g of each of the following compounds. l type="a"> benzene, C6H6 i>calcium hydride, CaH2 i>ethyl alcohol, C2H5OH i>serine, C3H7O3Narrow_forward
- If a hydrocarbon is 10% hydrogen by mass, what is its empirical formula?arrow_forwardAspirin is a compound with the molecular formula C9H8O4. What is its percent composition?arrow_forwardThe empirical formula of codeine is C18H21NO3. If the molar mass of codeine is 299 g/mol, what is its molecular formula?arrow_forward
- In 1871, Mendeleev predicted the undiscovered element ekasilicon. In 1886, the element was discovered in Germany and was given the name germanium. If 0.500 g of germanium reacts with chlorine gas to give 1.456 g of germanium chloride, what is its empirical formula?arrow_forwardAn industrial detergent was found to be composed of 57.72% C, 8.073% H, 17.09% O, by mass and the remaining was an unspecified element, X. It was also found that the moles of X was twice that of the moles of O. Given that the molar mass is 566.92 g/mol and that the molar mass is twice the molar mass of that of the emperical formula, what is the molecular formula in terms of X? Identify what element X is by explicit calculation.arrow_forwardWhat would be the number of moles for calcium arbonate if it is 66.0 g T, also the mass.arrow_forward
