An empirical formula represents the lowest whole number ratio of elements in a compound.

The molecular formula for glucose is C6H12O6. The subscripts represent a multiple of an empirical formula. To determine the empirical formula, divide the subscripts by the GCF of 6, which gives CH2O.

The empirical formula CH2O shows very clearly that glucose, a carbohydrate, is composed of hydrated carbon atoms.
