Medically, it has a major use in reducing inflammation from rheumatoid arthritis. Cortisol is 696 % C, 8.46% H, and 22.1 % O. Calculate the following. (10 points) What is the empirical formula of Cortisol a. b. What is the empirical mass of Cortisol c. What is the molecular formula of Cortisol

Explanation / Answer

7. The balanced equations are,

(a)

2 SO3 + O2 -----------> 2 SO4

(b)

CaSiO3 (s) + 6 HF (g) -----------> SiF4 (g) + CaF2 (s) + 3 H2O (l)

(c)

Sc2O3 (s) + 3 H2O (l) -----------> 2 Sc(OH)3 (s)

(d)

6 S2Cl2 (l) + 16 NH3 (g) -----------> S4N4 (s) + S8 (s) + 12 NH4Cl (s)

(e)

BCl3 (g) + 3 H2O (l) ----------> H3BO3 (s) + 3 HCl (g)

(f)

3 Fe (s) + 4 H2O (l) -----------> Fe3O4 (s) +4 H2 (g)

(g)

C6H10O5 (s) + 6 O2 (g) -------------> 6 CO2 (g) + 5 H2O (g)

(h)

P4O10 (s) + 6 H2O (l) ------------> 4 H3PO4 (aq.)

8.

Element   Mass    Number of moles Division by small number        Nearest whole number

C              69.6      69.6 / 12 = 5.80       5.80 / 1.38 = 4.2                        4.2 * 5 = 21

H              8.46       8.46 / 1 = 8.46        8.46 / 1.38 = 6.12                         6 * 5 = 30

O              22.1       22.1 / 16 = 1.38      1.38 / 1.38 = 1.00                         1 * 5 = 5

(a)

The emperical formula = C21H30O5

(b)

Emperical formula mass = 21 (C) + 30 (H) + 5 (O) = 21 (12) + 30 (1) + 5 (16) = 362 g/mol

(c)

n = molecular mass / emperical formula mass

n = 362.74 / 362

n = 1.002

n = 1 (approxi.)

Molecular formula = [Emperical formula]n = [C21H30O5]1 = C21H30O5
