CHEMICAL FORMULAS
• 3 (a). structural formula shows the individual bonds between atoms and
the nature of bond. Bonds are indicated by lines.
CHEMICAL FORMULAS
• 3. (b)Condensed structural formula is
a simpler way to show how atoms are
connected but does not give as much
information about bonds. E.g CH3COOH
or CH3CO2H is acetic acid showing three O
H attached to first C atom and two O and
one H attached to the second C atom.
1 molCO 2 1 molC
Mol C 0.163 g CO2 X X 0.00372 molC
44.011 g CO2 1 molCO2
1 molH2O 2 molH
Mol H 0.1676 g H2O X X 0.01861 molH
18.015 g H2O 1 molH2O
How do we find mol O? Cannot use O from CO 2 and H 2 O
because some O 2 is added from air.
Calculate the difference . We know the mass of original sample and
can calculate the mass
of C and H and subtract from original mass.
12.0107 g C
mass C 0.003722 mol C x 0.04470 g C
1 mol C
1.00794 g H
mass H 0.01861 mol H x 0.01875 g H
1 mol H
mass O mass of sample - mass C - mass H
0.1227 g - 0.04470 g - 0.01875 0.05925 g O
We go back to moles since we want to calculate mole ratios :
1mol O
mol O 0.05925 g O x 0.003703 mol O
15.994 g O
C 0.003722H 0.01861O 0.003703
• Next divide by the smallest number of moles
C1H5O1
