  32. Percentage Composition • The mass percentage of each element in the compound. • The composition is determined by experiment, often by combustion. When a compound is burned, its component elements form oxides—for example, CO2 and H2O. The CO2 and H2O are captured and weighed to determine the amount of C and H in the original compound.

  37. Empirical Formula (Simplest Formula) • The formula of a substance written with the smallest integer subscripts. • For example: The empirical formula for N2O4 is NO2. The empirical formula for H2O2 is HO

  38. Determining the Empirical Formula Beginning with percent composition: • Assume exactly 100 g so percentages convert directly to grams. • Convert grams to moles for each element. • Manipulate the resulting mole ratios to obtain whole numbers.

  39. Manipulating the ratios: • Divide each mole amount by the smallest mole amount. • If the result is not a whole number: • Multiply each mole amount by a factor. • For example: • If the decimal portion is 0.5, multiply by 2. • If the decimal portion is 0.33 or 0.67, multiply by 3. • If the decimal portion is 0.25 or 0.75, multiply by 4.

  41. Molecular Formula • A formula for a molecule in which the subscripts are whole-number multiples of the subscripts in the empirical formula.

  42. To determine the molecular formula: • Compute the empirical formula weight. • Find the ratio of the molecular weight to the empirical formula weight. • Multiply each subscript of the empirical formula by n.

  47. Stoichiometry • The calculation of the quantities of reactants and products involved in a chemical reaction. • Interpreting a Chemical Equation • The coefficients of the balanced chemical equation may be interpreted in terms of either (1) numbers of molecules (or ions or formula units) or (2) numbers of moles, depending on your needs.
