7. Naphthalene, the active ingredient in one variety of mothballs, is an organic compound that contains
carbon and hydrogen only. Complete combustion of a 20.10 mg sample of naphthalene in oxygen
yielded 69.00 mg of CO2 and 11.30 mg of H20. Determine the empirical formula of naphthalene.
(Naphthalene C10H8 and empirical formula CSH )
8. Xylene, an organic compound has molar mass 106.16 g/mol, is a major component of many gasoline
blends, contains carbon and hydrogen only. Complete combustion of a 17.12 mg sample of xylene in
oxygen yielded 56.77 mg of CO2 and 14.53 mg of H20. Determine the empirical and molecular formula
of xylene. (The empirical formula is C4H5. The molecular formula of xylene is actually CsH10-)
9. Epsom salts is a hydrated ionic compound with e formula MgSO4 · XH2O. A 9.86g sample of Epsom
salts was heated to drive off the water of hydration. The mass of the sample after complete
dehydration was 4.82g.
M8SO4-7H20
