Adipic acid contains 49.32% C, 43.84% O, and 6.85% H by mass. What is the empirical formula?Most studied answerC= 49.32 g x (1 mol / 12.011) = 4.11 mol CO= 43.84 g x (1 mol / 16.00) = 2.74 mol OH= 6.85 g x (1 mol / 1.008) = 6.80 mol H4.11 mol C / 2.74 = 1.52.74 mol O / 2.74 = 16.80 mol H / 2.74 = 2.5you need a whole number so you find the least common multiple to make each one a whole number.1.5 x 2 = 3 C1 x 2 = 2 O2.5 x 2 = 5 HEF: C3O2H5
