Let's see if you can figure out this chemistry question! (Stoichiometry)




Suppose there is a compound containing carbon,hydrogen,and sulfur . A 7.96 mg sample of this compound is burned in oxygen and found to form 16.65 mg of co2. The sulfur in 4.31 mg of the compound is converted into sulfate by a series of reactions and precipitated as BaSO4, which was found to have a mass of 11.96 mg. The molecular weight of the compound was found to be 168 g/mol. Using this data, determine both the empirical and molecular formula! Good Luck!
