200 grams of an organic sample which contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen is analyzed and found to contain 97.30 grams of carbon, 16.22 grams of hydrogen and the remainder oxygen. what is the empirical formula for the compound?

The Empirical formula of an organic compound is=

Explanation:

Mass of an organic compound = 200 g

Mass of carbon = 97.30 g

moles of carbon =

Mass of hydrogen = 16.22 g

Moles of hydrogen =

Mass of oxygen = 200 g - 97.30 g - 16.22 g = 86.48 g

Moles of oxygen =

Divide the all the moles of element with smallest value of moles.

Carbon =

Hydrogen =

Oxygen =

Empirical formula =

Converting them into whole number ratios.

Empirical formula =
