  1. Simplest formula calculations Q- a compound is found to contain the following % by mass: 69.58% Ba, 6.090% C, 24.32% O. What is the simplest (i.e. empirical) formula? Step 1: imagine that you have 100 g of the substance. Thus, % will become mass in grams. E.g. 69.58 % Ba becomes 69.58 g Ba. (Some questionswillgivegramsrightoff, instead of %) Step 2:calculatethe#ofmoles(mol=g¸g/mol) Step 3: express moles as the simplest ratio by dividing through by the lowest number. Step 4: write the simplest formula from mol ratios.

  7. Molecular formula calculations • There is one additional step to solving for a molecular formula. First you need the molar massofthecompound.E.g. inQ2,themolecular formula can be determined if we know that the molar mass of the compound is 150 g/mol. • First, determine molar mass of the simplest formula. For CH2O it is 30 g/mol (12+2+16). • Divide the molar mass of the compound by this to get a factor: 150 g/mol ¸ 30 g/mol = 5 • Multiply each subscript in the formula by this factor: C5H10O5 is the molecular formula. (models) Q- For OF, give the molecular formula if the compound is 70 g/mol O2F270 ¸ 35 = 2

  8. Combustion analysis gives the following: 26.7% C, 2.2% hydrogen, 71.1% oxygen. If the molecular mass of the compound is 90 g/mol, determine its molecular formula. • What information must be known to determine a) the empirical formula of a substance? b) the molecular formula of a substance? • A compound’s empirical formula is CH, and it weighs 104g/mol. Give the molecular formula. • A substance is decomposed and found to consist of 53.2% C, 11.2% H, and 35.6% O by mass. Calculate the molecular formula of the unknown if its molar mass is 90 g/mol.
