CONCEPT:for a compound AxBy: x moles of A=y moles of B
Now this u have written ooolta.......rest is fine...
thats...
for a compound AxBy: y moles of A=x moles of B
manish sir plz tell why this concept is not applicable here
CONCEPT:for a compound AxBy: x moles of A=y moles of B
PROBLEM:0.75 moles of A4 +2.0 moles of O2 completely react to form a single compound!find the empirical formula of the compound.
SOLUTION:moles of A4/moles of O2=0.75/2.0=3/8
((moles of A)/4)/((moles of O)/2)=3/8
moles of A/moles of B=3/4
now using concept above empirical formula is A4O3
BUT right answer is just opposite i.e. A3O4....plz clarify why the concpet is not applicable!!! and reason why just reverse of it holds here!

o ya silly me[1]
thanx!
i wrote this wrongly in my notes so using it wrong over and over again[3]
