Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The molecular formula of the compound with empirical formula
Concept introduction:
An empirical formula gives the simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element present in a molecule. The molecular formula tells the exact number of atoms of each element present in a molecule.
Following are the steps to determine the molecular formula of a compound.
Step 1: 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.
Step 2: Divide the molar mass of the compound by its empirical formula mass to obtain the whole number. The formula to calculate the whole number multiple is as follows:
Step 3: Multiply the whole number with the subscript of each element present in the empirical formula. This gives the molecular formula of the compound.
