प्रश्न

A compound of X and Y has the empirical formula XY2. Its vapor density is equal to its empirical formula weight. Determine its molecular formula.

उत्तर

Given:
Empirical formula  = XY2
Vapor density  = Empirical formula weight
Molecular formula =?
Molecular weight  = n(Empirical formula weight)

= 2 x V.D.

n(Empirical formula weight) =  2 x V.D.

Since Vapour density Empirical formula weight

 n = 2

Molecular formula  = 2(Empirical formula)

= 2(XY2)

Molecular formula = X2Y4
