One mole of h2s gas escapes from a container by effusion in 77 seconds how long would it take one mole of nh3 gas to escape from

Answer: The molecular formula will be

Explanation:

When percentages are provided, we assume the total mass to be 100 grams.

Thus, the mass of each element corresponds to the specified percentage.

Mass of C= 70.6 g

Mass of H = 5.9 g

Mass of O = 23.5 g

Step 1: convert given masses to moles.

Moles of C =

Moles of H =

Moles of O =

Step 2: For determining the mole ratio, divide each molar amount by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C =

For H =

For O =

The resulting ratio of C: H: O= 4: 4: 1

Hence, the empirical formula obtained is

The empirical weight is calculated as = 4(12)+4(1)+1(16)= 68g.

The molecular weight = 136 g/mole

Now the molecular formula needs to be obtained.

The molecular formula can be derived as=
