What is pure water and write its chemical formula?
H2O A compound formed when hydrogen gas burns with oxygen.
What are some advantages of molecular formulae?
With a molecular formula we can calculate the molar mass and the chemical composition of a compound, also we can write chemical equations.
Would ionic or covalent molecules use the molecular formula or empirical formula?
What you write for an ionic compound is called the formula unit, but the formula unit is almost always the same as the empirical formula. The answer to your question could not be the molecular formula because an ionic compound is not a molecule.
What is the covalent compound formula for iodine Pentagon fluoride?
The molecular formula for iodine pentafluoride is IF5. No prefix in front of iodine is understood to be one, but mono- is not used for the first element in a binary covalent compount. The prefix penta- means five, so the subscript for fluoride is 5. Unfortunately, there is no way to write the 5 as a subscript.
