Explanation:
Calculation sequence:
% => grams => moles => reduce => empirical Ratio
Molecular multiple = Molecular Mass / Empirical Mass
C: => 57.1% => 57.1 g => 57.1/12 = 4.7583
H: => 4.8% => 4.8 g => 4.8/1 = 4.8000
O: => 38.1% => 38.1 g => 38.1/16 = 2.3813
TTL => 100% 100 g
Reduced Mole values =>
C : H : O => 4.7583/2.3813 : 4.8000/2.3813 : 2.3813/2.3813 => 2 : 2 : 1
∴ empirical formula => C₂H₂O
empirical formula weight => 2C + 2H + 1O = [2(12) + 2(1) + 1(16)] amu = 42 amu
molecular formula weight (given in problem) = 126 g/mole
The molecular formula is a whole number multiple of the empirical formula.
molecular multiple = 126 amu / 42 amu = 3
∴ molecular formula => (C₂H₂O)₃ => C₆H₆O₃

Difference between frequency polygon and histogram: 1. Frequency polygon is an improvement over histogram because it provides a continuous curve indicating the causes of rise and fall in the data. On the other hand, frequency polygon is an approximate curve, but still it is more usefui as compared to histogram.
