Empirical formula = C3H5O Molar mass of empirical formula = 3(12.01)+5(1.008)+1(16) = 57.07 Molar mass of molecular fomula = 114.15 n = Molar mass of molecular fomula/Molar mass of empirical formula = 114.15/57.07 n = 2 Molecular formula = n(empirical formula) Molecular formula = 2(C3H5O) = C6H10O2 Check: 6(12.01)+10(1.008)+2(16)= 114.14
The molecular formula of a compound can not be determined solely based on its molar mass. In this case, without additional information, it is not possible to determine the molecular formula of the compound CH2.
the empirical formula and the molar mass
C7h6o2
Dicyclohexyl chemical formula is C12H22 and the molecular weight is 166,3031 (not 200).
molar mass of unknown/molar mass of empirial = # of empirical units in the molecular formula. Example: empirical formula is CH2O with a molar mass of 30. If the molar mass of the unknown is 180, then 180/30 = 6 and molecular formula will be C6H12O6
In order to find molecular formula from empirical formula, one needs to know the molar mass of the molecular formula. Then you simply divide the molar mass of the molecular formula by the molar mass of the empirical formula to find out how many empirical formulae are in the molecular formula. Then you multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by that number.

molar mass over grams of elementThe above answer is somewhat correct. In order to find the molecular formula when given the empirical formula, you must first find the molar mass of the empirical formula.MOLAR MASS# atoms element A x Atomic Mass element A (Periodic Table) = mass A# atoms element B x atomic mass element B (periodic table) = mass B... etc.Add up all of the mass values found above and you have the molar mass.Then, after you have found the empirical formula's molar mass, you divide the molar mass of the molecular formula by the empirical formula's molar mass (solving for n).MOLECULAR FORMULA EQUATION: N (Empirical formula) (read as N times empirical formula) where:N = Molar mass substance---- Molar Mass emp. form.
