Medical implants and high-quality jewelry items for body piercings are frequently made of a material known as G23Ti or surgical-grade titanium. The percent composition of the material is 64.39% titanium, 24.19% aluminum, and 11.42% vanadium. What is the empirical formula for surgical-grade titanium

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Empirical Formular is given as; Ti₆Al₄V

Explanation:

The percent composition of the material is 64.39% titanium, 24.19% aluminum, and 11.42% vanadium.

Elements                        Titanium            Aluminium        Vanadium

Percentage                    64.39                 24.19                   11.42

Divide all through by their molar mass

                                     64.39 / 47.87      24.19 / 27               11.42 / 50.94

                                       =  1.345                = 0.896                 = 0.224

Divide all though  by the smallest number (0.224)

                                     1.345 / 0.224        0.896 / 0.224       0.224 / 0.224

                                     = 6                         = 4                             = 1

The Empirical Formular is given as; Ti₆Al₄V

Using the stepwise procedure for obtaining the empirical formula of a compound, the empirical formula is [tex] T_{6}Al_{4}V[/tex]

Titanium :

  • Percentage composition = 64.39%
  • Molar mass = 47.87

Divide by Molar mass : = 64.39/47.87 = 1.345

Aluminum :

  • Percentage composition = 24.19%
  • Molar mass = 27

Divide by Molar mass : = 24.19/27 = 0.896

Vanadium :

  • Percentage composition = 11.42%
  • Molar mass = 50.94%

Divide by Molar mass : = 11.42/50.94 = 0.224

Divide by the smallest :

Titanium = 1.345 / 0.224 = 6.00

Aluminum = 0.896 / 0.224 = 4

Vanadium = 0.224 / 0.224 = 1

Hence, the empirical formula is [tex] T_{6}Al_{4}V[/tex]
