III. Mass Percent from the Chemical Formula
Acetone (𝐶3𝐻6𝑂) is a colorless, volatile, and flammable liquid. The pungent odor can irritate eyes, nose, and respiratory system. It is commonly used in personal care such as removing nail polish. (1) What is the mass percent of each element in acetone? (2) How many grams of carbon are in 23 grams of acetone?
IV. Determining the Formula of an Unknown Compound
One of the most widespread environmental carcinogens (cancer-causing agents) is benzo[a]pyrene (ℳ = 252.30 𝑔⁄𝑚𝑜𝑙). It is found in coal dust, in cigarette smoke, and even in charcoal-grilled meat. Analysis of this hydrocarbon shows 95.21 mass % C and 4.79 mass % H. (1) What is the empirical formula of benzo[a]pyrene? (2) What is the molecular formula of benzo[a]pyrene?
