A 3.00g of a certain Compound X, known to be made of carbon, hydrogen and perhaps oxygen, and to have a molecular molar mass of 192./gmol, is burned completely in excess oxygen, and the mass of the products carefully measured: product mass carbon dioxide 4.13g water 1.13g Use this information to find the molecular formula of X.

The molecular formula for the given organic compound X is

Explanation:

We are given:

Mass of

Mass of

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 4.13 g of carbon dioxide, = of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 1.13 g of water, of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (3.00) - (1.13+ 0.125) = 1.75 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =

Moles of Hydrogen =

Moles of Oxygen =

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles

For Carbon =

For Hydrogen =

For Oxygen =

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1: 1.33: 1.16

Converting them into whole number ratios by multiplying by 6:

The ratio of C : H : O = 6: 8: 7

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is

Empirical mass =

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

Thus molecular formula for the given organic compound X is

i wish i could but this one is weird give me abc and i can solve it.
