What is the empirical formula and molecular formula ?

The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇

The molecular formula : C₁₀Cl₃₅

Given

8.81 g Carbon

91.2 g Chlorine

Molar Mass: 1362.5 g/mol

Required

The empirical formula and molecular formula

Solution

Mol ratio :

C = 8.81 g : 12.011 g/mol =0.733

Cl = 91.2 g : 35,453 g/mol = 2..572

Divide by 0.733

C : Cl = 1 : 3.5 = 2 : 7

The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇

(The empirical formula)n = the molecular formula

(C₂Cl₇)n = 1362.5

(2x12.011+7x35.453)n=1362.5

(272.193)n=1362.5

n = 5

93.2 ml + 3920 ml = 4013 ml total  

(93.2 ml) * (2.03 m) / (4013 ml) = 0.0471 m

the volume in in l of the diluted solution would be 0.0471 m.

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
