EMF C14H18N2O5

EMF(n) = MF

12 + 1 + 14 + 16(n) = 294.30

43n = 294.30

n = 7 (to 1 decimal place)

there MF = C14H18N2O5(7)

= C98H126N4O35

every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. therefore, there must be the same number of atoms of each element on each side of a chemical equation.
