Find the empirical formula of the compounds with the following percentage composition:

Pb = 62.5%, N = 8.5%, O = 29.0%

संख्यात्मक

उत्तर

Element Percentage Atomic Weight Ratio Simplest Ratio
Pb 62.5 207 `62.5/207` = 0.302 `0.302/0.302` = 1
N 8.5 14 `8.5/14` = 0.608 `0.608/0.302` = 2
O 29.0 16 `29.0/16` = 1.812 `1.812/0.302` = 6

∴ The empirical formula of the given compound = PbN2O6 or Pb(NO3)2
