What is Empirical Formula of Magnesium Oxide Experiment about?

1. The document describes an experiment to determine the empirical formula of magnesium oxide through the combustion of magnesium. Magnesium was burned in a crucible and the mass of the resulting magnesium oxide was measured. 2. Calculations determined the empirical formula to be Mg1.178±0.001673O, which differs from the accepted literature value of MgO. 3. Sources of error were identified, including the loss of magnesium oxide product when opening the crucible, incomplete reaction of the magnesium, and
