2 Simplest formula calculations
3/27/2017 Simplest formula calculations Q- a compound is found to contain the following % by mass: 69.58% Ba, 6.090% C, 24.32% O. What is the simplest (i.e. empirical) formula? Step 1: imagine that you have 100 g of the substance. Thus, % will become mass in grams. E.g % Ba becomes g Ba. (Some questions will give grams right off, instead of %) Step 2: calculate the # of moles (mol = g ¸ g/mol) Step 3: express moles as the simplest ratio by dividing through by the lowest number. Step 4: write the simplest formula from mol ratios.

8 Molecular formula calculations
3/27/2017 There is one additional step to solving for a molecular formula. First you need the molar mass of the compound. E.g. in Q2, the molecular formula can be determined if we know that the molar mass of the compound is 150 g/mol. First, determine molar mass of the simplest formula. For CH2O it is 30 g/mol ( ). Divide the molar mass of the compound by this to get a factor: 150 g/mol ¸ 30 g/mol = 5 Multiply each subscript in the formula by this factor: C5H10O5 is the molecular formula. (models) Q- For OF, give the molecular formula if the compound is 70 g/mol O2F ¸ 35 = 2
