The empirical formula is = C2H4O2
Molecular formula=C2H4O2
<h3>Calculation of
Molecular formula and empirical formula:-</h3>
Vinegar has three elements:
oxygen = 53.29%,
hydrogen = 6.70%,
and carbon = 40.01%.
We can create an equation for the total mass of vinegar with 'a' carbon atom,' b' hydrogen atom, and 'c' oxygen atoms using the molar masses of C, H, and O.
12*a + 1*b + 16*c = 60
We also know that C makes up 24 g/mol, or 40.01 percent, of the overall mass of 60 g/mol.
The formula contains two C atoms because each C atom has a molecular mass of 12 g/mol. You may determine that the formula contains 4 H and 2 O atoms by using the same reasoning for H and O.
The empirical formula is = C2H4O2
Molecular formula= (C2H4O2)n
(4 x 12 + 1 x 4 + 16 x 2)n = 60
(84)n = 60
n=60/84
n=0.71=1
Molecular formula=C2H4O2

Answer:cause LOVE ISSSSS contagioussssss:)
Explanation:
The correct answer is option 2. When Pt2+ is reduced it loses electrons, oxidizing it. The oxidation number is the charge of the atom. Adding an electron, decreases the net charge consequently the oxidation number.
