  8. How are chemical formulas represented?

  9. Examples of different molecule representations

  10. Chapter 3: Examples – Percent Composition, Empirical, Molecular Formulae • Citronellal, an aldehyde, has insect repellent properties. A sample was found to have 2.460 g carbon, 0.373 g hydrogen, and 0.329 g oxygen. • What is the percentage of carbon in the sample? • What is the molecular formula of citronellal? It’s molar mass is about 154 g/mol.

  11. Chapter 3: Examples – Empirical and Molecular Formula It is found that a sample of liquid bromine of mass 1.546 g reacts with fluorine gas to form 2.649 g of a bromine fluoride liquid. • Determine the empirical formula. • Write the balanced chemical reaction, if the molar mass is about 137 g/mol.

  12. Chapter 3: Examples – Empirical and Molecular Formula Salicylic acid, used in the synthesis of aspirin, has a mass composition of 60.87% C, 4.38% H, and 34.75% O. What is the formula of salicylic acid?

  13. Chapter 3: Examples – Empirical and Molecular Formula • Combustion of a 1.000 g sample of an organic compound known to contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen produces 2.360 g of carbon dioxide and 0.640 g of water. • What is the empirical formula? • The molar mass of the gas cyclopronanone is about 56 g/mol. Write the balanced combustion reaction. • What is the functional group for cyclopronanone?

  14. Chapter 3: Examples – Empirical and Molecular Formula Caffeine is made up of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms and has a molar mass of 194 g/mol. When 0.376 g of caffeine was burned 0.682 g of carbon dioxide, 0.174 g of water, and 0.110 g of nitrogen gases were formed. Determine the empirical and molecular formulas.

  15. Chapter 3: Examples – Empirical and Molecular Formula A compound containing Ca, S, C, and N was analyzed as follows. It’s formula mass is about 156 g/mol. • A 0.125 g sample was mixed with sodium carbonate until all of the calcium was converted to a 0.0800 g sample of calcium carbonate. • A 0.115 g sample was carried through a series of reactions until all of the sulfur was converted to 0.344 g of barium sulfate. • A 0.356 g sample was processed to liberate all of the nitrogen into 0.0775 g of ammonia. • Find the empirical and molecular formulae. • Name the compound.
