Question 1
A compound is found to contain 35.0% Carbon, 7.0% Hydrogen, and 58.0% Oxygen by mass. Calculate both the empirical and molecular formulas given the molar mass is 180 g/mol.
💡 Hint: Convert mass percentages to moles, find ratios, then apply molar mass.
Question 2
Given a compound composed of 10.0 g of Nitrogen and 30.0 g of Oxygen, find the empirical and molecular formulas given its molar mass of 90 g/mol.
💡 Hint: Use the masses to find moles, then ratios to find empirical, followed by molar mass for molecular.
