A whole number multiple of the molecular formula.

∙ 14y ago
An empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound. It does not provide information about the actual number of atoms present in a molecule. To determine the empirical formula, one must divide the subscripts of the compound's molecular formula by the greatest common divisor to obtain the simplest ratio.

What is a list of Elements in a compound in exact ratios?
A compound is a substance composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together in exact ratios. For example, in water (H2O), the elements hydrogen and oxygen are combined in a 2:1 ratio. Another example is carbon dioxide (CO2), where carbon and oxygen are combined in a 1:2 ratio.
Is CO an emperical formula or a molecular formula?
CO is a molecular formula representing carbon monoxide, which consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom. It is also its empirical formula because the ratio of atoms is the simplest whole-number ratio.
What is the chemical formula for Black phosphorus?
Red, yellow and black phosphorus have the same emperical formula P4.
What is the empirical formula for C8H10?
The empirical formula for C8H10 is CH5. This is found by dividing the subscripts in the molecular formula by their greatest common factor.

Formula is: CHI�
What is the emperical formula for Sr and F?
The empirical formula for strontium (Sr) is Sr and for fluorine (F) is F.
What is the emperical formula for C6H12?
Empirical formula gives the proportions of the elements present in a compound but not the actual numbers or the arrangement of atoms. The empirical formula for C6H12 is CH2.
