CH4 has the same molecular and empirical formulas.
Yes. One of the simples examples is the pair butane and 2-methylpropane, which have not only the same empirical but the same molecular formula, C4H10.
Some examples include water, H2O, carbon dioxide, CO2, and carbon monoxide, CO.

b) molecular weight
c) percentage ratio

For example, all linear alkenes with one double bond and no other functional groups have the same empirical formula.

An empirical formula refers to the chemical formula that indicates the simplest ratio of atoms in a compound. Two different compounds may have the same empirical formula.
Two compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas are isomers of each other.
No. A molecular formula can be the same as the empirical formula, such as CH4 (methane), because the two component atoms exist in a ratio that cannot be mathematically further broken down - one carbon to four hydrogens. In this case the molecular formula (the actual number of atoms per molecule), and the empirical formula (the simplest ratio of those numbers) is identical. On the other hand, ethane, C2H6 - two carbons to 6 hydrogens - has a molecular formula of C2H6 and a empirical formula of CH3, the ratio of 2 to 6 reduced to its simplest whole number form. Sooooooooooo, the molecular formula will always be equal to or greater than the empirical formula, and the empirical formula will always be equal to or less than the molecular formula. In other words (as if that wasn't enough), the molecular formula will never be less than the empirical formula and the empirical formula will never be greater than the molecular formula, but THE TWO CAN BE EQUAL. Whew!!! Ray
Yes c6h12o6 is an organic compound. Most compounds have have carbon but not all things that have carbon are organic. c6h12o6 means there are six parts carbon, twelve parts hydrogen, and six parts oxygen.
There is no set formula for fatty acids; they differ depending on the lipid. But in general, fatty acids are composed of a carbon skeleton, 16-18 carbons long. Each carbon is covalently bonded to a hydrogen.
An empirical formula refers to the chemical formula that indicates the simplest ratio of atoms in a compound. Two different compounds may have the same empirical formula.
No? Consider starch and cellulose; same formula extremely different properties.
These two compounds has different molecular formulas.
It does not necessarily mean that. For example glucose (C6H12O6) and formaldehyde (CH2O) have the same percentages of elements by mass, but are two very difference compounds.

The empirical formula of organic compounds is the lowest whole number ratio of atoms contained in the substance, as defined in chemistry. The empirical formula gives the minimal ratio of the number of various atoms that exist. It's an empirical formula, if the formula is shortened, but not the exact number of atoms in the molecule, C4H6 is the chemical formula for butane. For every mole of carbon, there are two moles of hydrogen. The carbon-to-hydrogen ratio equals 2:3. C2H3 is the empirical formula for butane (C4H6). Hence, the correct answer is C2H3.

Empirical FormulaAll compounds are formed from different atoms of different elements through chemical bonding. Especially in organic chemistry, there are billions of different compounds which has made up from hydrogen and carbon.As an example let us take ethene and propene, which are two alkenes.The prior has 2 carbon atoms and 4 hydrogen atoms, and the latter has 3 carbon atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms.In both of these molecules, the simplest ratio between C:H is 1:2, hence both of these compounds have the empirical formula of CH2.Molecular FormulaThe molecular formula is given by the actual ratio of the atoms which are in the molecule. For example, ethanol and diethyl ether both have the same molecular formula of C2H6O (in the practice we write these with different notations though). Compounds with the same molecular formula are known as isomers. Constitutional isomers, Stereo-isomers and Conformational isomers are three main types of isomers.
