10.47 g of a compound contained 6.25 g of metal A and rest non-metal B. Calculate the empirical formula of the compound [At. wt of A = 207, B = 35.5]

संख्यात्मक

उत्तर

Given: Weight of the compound: 10.47g

Weight of metal A = 6.25g

Weight of non-metal B = 10.47 – 6.25 = 4.22g

Element

mass

At. Wt.

Relative no. of atoms

Simplest ratio

A

6.25

207

`6.25/207` = 0.03

`0.03/0.03` = 1

B

4.22

35.5

`4.26/35.5` = 0.12

`0.12/0.03` = 4

Hence, the empirical formula is AB4
