A compound has an empirical formula of CHN. What is its molecular formula, if its
molar mass is 135.13 g/mol?
(C=12.01 amu, H=1.008 amu, N=14.01)
A
B
C5H5N5

Explanation:

Given -

molar mass = 135.13 g/mol

To Find -

Solution:

we know that -

So,

Here empirical mass =

12.01 + 1.008 + 14.01 = 27.028

Then,

135.13 = n × 27.028

n = 4.99 ≈ 5

We know that,

Then,

molecular formula = 5(CHN)

= C₅H₅N₅

Therefore,

Option A is correct✔

the answer is true.

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
