Question 23

Two oxides of copper, X and Y, were analysed.

The empirical formula of oxide X was found to be CuO\text{CuO}CuO.

The results of the analysis of oxide Y showed it contained 1.27 g of copper combined with 0.16 g of oxygen.

Show, by calculation, that the two oxides had different empirical formulae. (relative atomic masses: O=16\text{O} = 16O=16, Cu=63.5\text{Cu} = 63.5Cu=63.5)
