Gas stoichiometry is a branch of chemistry that deals with the relationships between reactants and products in a chemical reaction involving gases. It involves using the principles of stoichiometry, which is the quantitative study of reactants and products in a chemical reaction, to calculate the amounts of gases involved in a reaction.
The molecular formula of CHCl is the chemical formula that represents the number and types of atoms present in one molecule of a compound. In the case of CHCl, the formula indicates that there is one carbon atom, one hydrogen atom, and one chlorine atom in each molecule.
To find the molecular formula of CHCl, you need to know the molar mass of the compound and the percentage composition of each element. The molar mass can be calculated by adding the atomic masses of each element in the compound. Then, using the percentage composition, you can determine the number of moles of each element and use this information to write the molecular formula.
The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms present in a molecule. It does not necessarily represent the actual number of atoms in a molecule. The molecular formula, on the other hand, represents the actual number of each type of atom in a molecule. It can be the same as or a multiple of the empirical formula.
Yes, the molecular formula of a compound can be determined from its empirical formula. This can be done by calculating the molar mass of the empirical formula and comparing it to the actual molar mass of the compound. If the molar mass of the empirical formula is a factor of the actual molar mass, then the molecular formula can be determined by multiplying the subscripts in the empirical formula by that factor.
