Answer 1

Explanation:

Empirical formula in chemistry refers to a smallest integer ratio of the atoms present in a compound. For example, ethane has molecular formula C2H6. The ratio of number of C atoms to the number of H atoms is 2:6. The simplest integer ratio would be 1:3 and, thus, the empirical formula of ethane is CH3.
