The empirical formula and empirical formula mass for
Concept introduction:
An empirical formula gives the simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element present in a compound.
Following are the steps to calculate the empirical formula mass of a compound.
Step 1: Determine the
Step 2: Divide the atom numbers of each element by a common factor to obtain the lowest whole number values. Write the lowest whole number value as the subscript of the
Step 3: Add the molar mass of each element multiplied by its number of atoms present in the empirical formula to obtain the empirical formula mass for the compound.
