On analysis, a substance was found to have the following percentage composition: A = 32, B = 29 and O = 39 (At. mass of A=39 and B=35). The molecular mass of the substance is 244. Its molecular formula is

Answer»

tell you the simplest trick to solve these problems for both school exams and MCQs.First look at the diagram and prepare a similar table.In the two rows, write ELEMENT name and atomic MASS as given in question.Then calculate value of Given Mass/Atomic mass in 3RD row.Finally try to FIND the simplest ratios between A, B and O.The ratio came as 2 : 2 : 3.So, empirical formula is :Now, So, MOLECULAR formula is also :
