given
3.62 g of compound
5.19 g CO2
2.83 g H2O
Now
Moles = mass/molar mass
Moles CO2=5.19 g/44.01g/mol
= 0.118 moles
Moles of C = 0.118 moles*1
= 0.118 moles
mass of C = Moles of C* molar mass of C
= 0.118 moles*12.01g/mol
= 1.42 g
Moles H2O =2.83 g /18.02g/mol
= 0.157 moles
Moles of H = 0.157 moles*2
= 0.314 moles
mass of H = Moles of H* molar mass of H
= 0.314 moles*1.01g/mol
= 0.32 g
So
Mass of O = Mass of compound - Mass of H - Mass of C
= 3.62 g- 0.32 g-1.42 g
= 1.88 g
Now
Moles of C = 1.42 g/12.01g/mol
= 0.118 moles
Moles of H = 0.32 g/1.01g/mol
= 0.32 moles
Moles of O= 1.88 g/16 g/mol
= 0.118 moles
So
Divide moles by lowest number(i.e. 0.118)
C ==>0.118/0.118 =1
H ==>0.32/0.118 =2.7
O ==>0.118/0.118 =1
So
C:H:O = 1:2.7:1
Multiply by 3
C:H:O = 3:8:3
Empirical formula is C3H8O3
