Gases A2 and B2 react according to the equation: A2 + B2 → AxBy . If equimolar ( not necessarily stoichiometrically equivalent) quantities are placed in a reaction vessel with a massless, frictionless piston and allowed to react to completion. The density of the gas mixture after reaction is 1.5X the original density. Find the empirical formula? Is there only one possibility? Explain.
