Molecular Formulas: Process | Answer |
Molecular Formula | Chemical formula indicates the type and the number of atoms in a molecule. Subscripts are actual numbers of atoms per molecule (P4O10= 4 mole P and 10 mole O). Multiply empirical subscripts by n to get molecular subscripts |
Molecular formula | = n (Empirical Formula) |
n= | Molar Mass of compound/Empirical Formula Mass |
Molecula formula = 2 (P2O5) | = P4O10 |
Molecular Formula from Empirical Formula and Molar Mass: Step 1 | Convert each mole of element from Empirical Formula to mass |
Molecular Formula from Empirical Formula and Molar Mass: Step 2 | Empirical Formula Mass is the total mass of all elements |
Molecular Formula from Empirical Formula and Molar Mass: Step 3 | Determine "n" by dividing the Molar Mass by the Empirical Formula Mass |
Molecular Formula from Empirical Formula and Molar Mass: Step 4 | Round "n" to the nearest whole number |
Molecular Formula from Empirical Formula and Molar Mass: Step 5 | Molecular Formula = n x Empirical Formula |
