Answer 2

• Empirical formula is the simplest form of the molecular formula.

• The relation between molecular and empirical is given as

        Molecular formula = Empirical formula × n

Here in the question, we have C5H12, which is pentane.

C5H12 can not be simplified further, so the empirical formula and molecular formula will be the same.

For another example, if we take Glucose, C6H12O6

It can be written in a simplified way as  $(CH2O)_{n}$, where n = 2.
