Evaluate the empirical formula of the sulfide

Reference no: EM13534315

A 2.00 g sample of silver (Ag) was heated with excess sulfur (S) to produce 2.30 g of a "silver sulfide". Calculate the empirical formula of this sulfide, AgxSy, where x and y are the smallest whole-number moles of Ag and S, respectively. (remember: #moles = #g/atomic mass)
