Acompound has the empirical formula . a 256-ml flask, at 373 k and 750. torr, contains 0.527 g of the gaseous compound. give the molecular formula.

From the ideal gas law, MM=mRTPV; where MM = molecular mass; m = mass; P = pressure in atmospheres; V= volume in litres; R = gas constant with appropriate units. So, 0.800â‹…gĂ—0.0821â‹…Lâ‹…atmâ‹…Kâ’1â‹…molâ’1Ă—373â‹…K0.256â‹…LĂ—0.987â‹…atm = 97.0 gâ‹…molâ’1. nĂ—(12.01+1.01+2Ă—35.45)â‹…gâ‹…molâ’1 = 97.0â‹…gâ‹…molâ’1. Clearly, n = 1. And molecular formula = C2H2Cl2. I seem to recall (but can't be bothered to look up) that vinylidene chloride, H2C=C(Cl)2 is a low boiling point gas, whereas the 1,2 dichloro species is a volatile liquid. At any rate we have supplied the molecular formula as required.

It’s b. mass i searched it up

Ithinks its false. tell me if im wrong
