Empirical Formulas From Analyses
The general procedure for determining empirical formula:
Sample Exercise 3.13:
Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) contains 40.92% C, 4.58% H and 54.50% O by mass. What is the
empirical formula of ascorbic acid?
Solution:
Assume that we have 100 g sample.
Thus we have:
40.92 g C, 4.58 g H, and 54.50 g O

Multiply each number in ( CH 1.33O ) by 3
 the empirical formula is C 3 H 4 O3
Molecular Formula from Empirical Formula
We can obtain the molecular formula of a compound from the empirical formula and molar mass of
the compound, using the relation:
Whole number multiple 
Molecular Weight
Empirical formula weight
In the sample exercise (3.13) the empirical formula of ascorbic acid = 88 amu
Experimentally, the molecular formula of ascorbic acid = 176 amu.
The molecular formula is 2 times the empirical formula.
176/88 = 2. Consequently, we multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by 2 to obtain the
molecular formula.
Combustion analysis
When a compound containing C and H is completely combusted in plenty of O2.
The carbon is converted to CO2, and the hydrogen is converted to H2O. and the amounts of CO2,
H2O produced are determined by measuring the increase in mass of CO2 and H2O absorbers.
S.E 3.15: Isopropyl alcohol, is composed of C, H, and O. Combustion of 0.255 g of isopropyl
alcohol produces 0.561 g CO2 and 0.306 g of H2O. Determine the empirical formula of isopropyl
alcohol.
4
Solution
The molar ratio in the compound is (C:H:O =0.0128:0.034:0.0043)
Divide by the smallest number that is: 0.0043
So, the empirical formula of isopropyl alcohol is C3 H8 O.

The stoichiometric equivalent quntities (2, 1, and 2) are used to convert between quantities of
reactants and products in a chemical reaction.

disposable general-purpose lighters H : ‫وقود أجهزة اإلشعال المنزلية‬

→
6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l)
Limiting Reactants
limiting reactant : The reactant that is completely consumed in a reaction.
It determines, or limits, the amount of product formed.
The other reactants are sometimes called excess reactants.
In the chemical reaction, the quantities of reactants consumed and products formed, are restricted by
the quantity ‫ محصورة بكمية‬of the limiting reactant.

For example, the reaction: 2 H2(g) + O2(g)
2 H2O(g)
The limiting reactant: (H2) and 2 mol O2 (excess reactant) will remain and 10 mol H2O is the product.

many moles of Na2CO3can be produced? How many moles of the excess reactant remain after the
completion of the reaction?

According to the chemical equation 1mol of CO 2 requires 2 moles of NaOH, but only 1.85 moles of
NaOH is present. So, NaOH is the limiting reactant.
Moles of Na2CO3 produced = 0.925 mol
Moles of CO2 remained in excess = 0.075 mol
