The empirical formula for this vitamin : C₃H₄O₃
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound =mole ratio of the components
The principle of determining empirical formula
- Determine the mass ratio of the constituent elements of the compound.
- Determine the mole ratio by dividing the percentage by the atomic mass
Mass of C in CO₂ :(MW C = 12 g/mol, CO₂=44 g/mol)
Mass of H in H₂O :(MW H = 1 g/mol, H₂O = 18 g/mol)
Mass O = Mass sample - (mass C + mass H) :
mol ratio C : H : O =

Explanation:
Mathematically, this means to combine like terms, such as terms with the same variable. In chemistry, this can refer to polar objects combining with polar objects while nonpolar objects combine with nonpolar objects.
