The molecular formula gives the actual number of each type of atom in a single molecule of a compound. It is a whole-number multiple (n) of the empirical formula, where n = Molar mass / Empirical formula mass.
Guia passo a passo
- 1Determine the empirical formula and its formula mass
- 2Measure or look up the actual molar mass
- 3n = Actual molar mass / Empirical formula mass
- 4Molecular formula = empirical formula × n
