Mods. Empirical Formula of an Oxide of Tin. Purpose: Within completing this lab, it was intended for the experimenter (student) to determine the empirical formula of an oxide of Tin by means of experimenting. This goal would be accomplished by finding the masses of the various substances experimented with, which 30 mesh tin, Tin Oxide, and Oxygen.
Through this experiment, it was determined that the Tin Oxide produced had the empirical formula of SnO3. Within this experiment numerous errors occurred that could not be controlled, thus resulting in inaccurate data when calculating the empirical formula of the Tin Oxide after the experiment.
