Empirical formulas show the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound, molecular formulas show the number of each type of atom in a molecule, and structural formulas show how the atoms in a molecule are bonded to each other.

Answer:

  • Empirical formula: It is a type formula for a compound which is defined as the ratio of elements in a molecular compounds i.e., simplest whole number ratio of different items in a compound.
  • It is written in small integer subscripts it doesn't give a real number of atoms but it gives simple ratio of each atom of molecule.
  • CH_{2} O for glucose
  • Molecular formula: It shows type of atoms and no each item connected in a molecule
  • It gives  the correct stoichiometry of each item.
  • It gives exact information of the molecule.
  • ex:C_{6} H_{12}O_{6} for glucose
