ok so

40g H and 20g O

WHat you first do is find out % composition of each

so
                                    H                            O
% composition           40/60*100                20/60*100
ratio of compostion           2               :            1

It's H2O


That's how you do empirical formula for this one i guess
but hows that possible???? i mean u found percentage composition by mass but thats not necessarily the same as the empirical formula(number of moles of atoms of each element)
true..
u didnt divide it by the molar mass
and anyways hydrogen atoms are so much lighter than oxygen atoms that the mass of hydrogen must be less than that of oxygen e.g. 4g of hydogen combines with 32g of oxygen to produce 36g of water

I know...i just tried to derive the empirical formula...found it this way so put it up :P..I know this is theoritically incorrect....but i just gave it a try
@shreyapril-plz check the q again...im being screwed for trying some crazy method

aadi do u hav ne notes on the oxidation state??/
2days class was interesting..

oxidation state can be explained as gain and loss of electrons too..

the concept is clear now..
i dont have any notes..
but i can give u few sitese..

and the repository of knowledge...nid404..wil definately have awesome sites for it..
chk out the thread...chem q...she had posted an awesome site for chem..
