What are the empirical formulas of a) ethylene glycol, a radiator antifreeze, molecular formula C2H6O2 b) peroxodisulfuric acid, a compound used in bleaching agents, molecular formula H2S2O8

Respuesta :

The answers are [tex]CH_3O[/tex] and [tex]HSO_4[/tex]

Explanation:

Given -

a) The molecular formula of ethylene glycol -

    [tex]C_2H_6O_2[/tex]

∴ The empirical formula of ethylene glycol will be -

    [tex]CH_3O[/tex]

Given -

b) The molecular formula of per-oxo-disulfuric acid (a compound used in bleaching agents) -

    [tex]H_2S_2O_8[/tex]

∴ The empirical formula of per-oxo-disulfuric acid will be -

    [tex]HSO_4[/tex]

Hence, the answers are [tex]CH_3O[/tex] and [tex]HSO_4[/tex].
