An analysis of a sugar compound is found to contain 216 grams of carbon (c), 36 grams of hydrogen (h), and 288 grams of oxygen (o). determine the empirical formula of the compound.

216g C       36g H     288g O

                   1 mol C
216 g C x   =  18 mol C
                  12.01 g C

                 1 mol H
36 g H  x   =  35.64 --> 36 mol H
                 1.008 g H

                   1 mol O
288 g O  x    =  18 mol O
                   16.0 g O

 C18H36O18 >(simply to lowest ration)--->  CH2O
