CHEM 1105 Experiment 4: Determination of a Chemical Formula Introduction When atoms of one element combine with those of another‚ the combining ratio is typically an integer or a simple fraction. The simplest formula of a compound expresses that atom ratio. When two or more elements are present in a compound‚ the formula still indicates the atom ratio. To find the formula of a compound we need to find the mass of each of the elements in a weighed sample of that compound. For example‚

The purpose of this lab was to find the empirical formula for magnesium oxide. To find this formula‚ a strip of Magnesium ribbon was burned in a crucible over a flame from a bunson burner. After the strip caught fire multiple times with the cover on‚ and 10 drops of distilled water were added‚ and the crucible was lightly heated. The crucible was then weighed and the mass recorded. Calculations were performed and the mole ratio of Mg to O was recorded. The results of other lab groups performing the
