Binary are compounds that were made from two different .
They have a formula of
Some examples include:
$Na + Cl -> NaCl$ => Sodium chloride
$2P + 3H_"2" -> 2PH_"3"$ => Phosphorus trihydride
$2Sn + O_"2" => 2SnO$ => Tin (II) oxide
Hope this helps :)

Asample of a compound contains 0.150 mol C, 0.105 mole H, 0.0300 mol O, and 0.0450 mol N. The molecular mass of the compound is found to be 402 g/mol. What is the compound's chemical formula?
Step 1. Calculate the empirical formula. The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound. The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of...

A carbon compound contains 12.8% of carbon, 2.1% of hydrogen and 85.1% of bromine. The molecular weight of the compound is 187.9. What is the molecular formula of the compound?
(Atomic weight: H = 1.008, C = 12.0, Br = 79.9)
As always with these problems, it is useful to assume $100*g$ of unknown compound....and thus find an empirical formula... $"Moles of carbon"=(12.8*g)/(12.011*g*mol^-1)=1.066*mol.$ $"Moles of hydrogen"=(2.1*g)/(1.00794*g*mol^-1)=2.084*mol.$ $"Moles of bromine"=(85.1*g)/(79.90*g*mol^-1)=1.066*mol.$ And we...

An unknown compound has a percent composition of 52.10% potassium, 15.8% carbon, and 32.1% oxygen. The molar mass of the compound is 150.22 g/mol. What is the empirical formula and the molecular formula of this compound?
As is typical with these questions, we assume $100*g$ of unknown compound, and work out the MOLAR quantities of each element present: $" moles of C":$ $(15.8*g)/(12.011*g*mol^-1)=1.32*mol$ $" moles of...

A compound contains only $C$, $H$, and$ N$. Combustion of $35.0$ $mg$ of the compound produces $33.5$ $mg$ $CO_2$ and $41.1$ $mg$ $H_2O$. What is the empirical formula of the compound?
We can write an equation for the (complete) combustion of the substance as follows: $C_xH_yN_z + (x+y/2+z)/2O_2 to xCO_2+y/2H_2O+zNO_2$ That might look complicated, but all we're saying is that each...

A compound that contains only nitrogen and oxygen is 30.4% N by mass; the molar mass of the compound is 92 g/mol. What is the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the compound?
In $100* g$ of this there are $30.4* g$ $N$, and the balance $O$. We divide thru by the atomic masses in order to approach the empirical formula: $(30.4*g)/(14.01*g*mol^-1)$ $=$...

If 20.50g of Sn combine completely with 24.49g of Cl to form a compound, what is the percent composition of tin in the compound? What is the empirical formula of the compound?
The of tin in the compound will be equal to the ratio between the mass of tin and the mass of the compound, multiplied by $100$. $color(blue)("% Sn"...

An unknown compound has the formula $C_xH_yO_z$. You burn 0.1523 g of the compound and isolate 0.3718 g of $CO_2$ and 0.1522 g of $H_2O$. What is the empirical formula of the compound?
First, work out the mass of each element that was present in the original compound. Carbon is always present as $CO_2$ in the ratio (12.011 g / 44.0098 g), and...
