Among the given compounds, the formula mass is preferred over molecular mass in KCl.

Explanation:

  • The formula which gives information on the name and number of atoms present in the compound is called a molecular formula.
  • The total atomic mass of each element present in the compound is called the formula mass.
  • Among the given compounds, apart from KCl, all the other three are indicated with the number of atoms present in each compound.
  • Due to this reason, as the number of atoms is not mentioned in KCl, its formula mass is preferred over molecular mass.
