Question

how to find emperical formula?​

Answer 1

Convert the mass of each element to moles using the molar mass from the periodic table. Divide each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated. Round to the nearest whole number. This is the mole ratio of the elements and is represented by subscripts in the empirical formula.

MOLECULAR FORMULA OF GLUCOSE

C6 H12 O6

REDUCE THE MOLECULAR FORMULA

divide the subscript of glucose by the greatest common factor (GCF)

(for glucose , the GCF is 6 )

C6/6 H12/6 O6/6

THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA OFGLUCOSE IS

CH2O
