A radioactive form of sodium pertechnetate is used as a brain-scanning agent in medicine. Quantitative analysis of a sample with a mass of 0.8961 g found 0.1114 g of sodium and 0.4749 g of technetium. The remainder was oxygen. Determine the empirical formula.

Answer:

moles Na = 0.1114 g / 22.9898 g/mol=0.004846

moles Tc = 0.4562g /98.9063 g/mol=0.004612

mass O = 0.8961 - ( 0.1114 + 0.4562)=03285 g

moles O = 0.3285 g/ 15.999 g/mol=0.02053

divide by the smallest

0.02053/ 0.004612 =4.45 => O

0.004846/ 0.004612 = 1.0 => Tc

to get whole numbers multiply by 2

Na2Tc2O 9
