The actual molar ratio of elements in a compound as expressed by the subscripts in a formula is expressed in what?
The actual molar ratio of elements in a compound as expressed by the subscripts in a formula is the formula unit. It represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms of each element in the compound.
What is the empirical formula for C9H15O3?
A molecular formula is identical to the empirical formula. The principle for this kind of problem is to find the highest integer that is an integral factor of all the subscripts then divide the subscripts by that integer. In this instance 3 is the highest integer. Therefore the empirical formula would be C3H5O.
