Question

what is Imperial formula ?​

Answer 1

Empirical formula

The steps for determining the empirical formula of a compound are as follows:

Step 1: Obtain the mass of each element present in grams

Element % = mass in g = m

Step 2: Determine the number of moles of each type of atom present

m/atomic mass = Molar amount (M)

Step 3: Divide the number of moles of each element by the smallest number of moles

M / least M value = Atomic Ratio (R)

Step 4: Convert numbers to whole numbers. This set of whole numbers are the subscripts in the empirical formula.

R * whole number = Empirical Formula
