Chapter 14 b 140 g of C2H4 = 140
28  mol = 5 mol [1]
396 g of C2H4Cl2 = 396
99  mol = 4 mol [1]
1 a i carbon (Ar = 12.0): 85.7 g of C per 100 g of
compound yield = 45  × 100% = 80% [1]
85.7 = 7.14 mol of C per 100 g of compound c

hydrogen (Ar = 1.0): 14.3 g of H per 100 g of
compound H H H H
14.3 = 14.3 mol of H per 100 g of compound

[1 mark for each correct displayed formula;
ratio number of atoms of H 14.3

1 mark for each correct name] [4]
empirical formula = CH2  [1] d i I is substitution [1]
ii Relative molecular mass of empirical ii II is addition [1]
formula, CH2 = 12 + 2 = 14 Total = 13
Relative molecular mass of unknown
molecule = 56
So the number of units of the empirical
formula is 56
14 = 4
So the molecular formula is (CH2) × 4 = C4H8
