What is the molecular formula for the unknown C3H5O?

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


Is C4H10 an empirical formula or a molecular formula for butane?

C4H10 is the molecular formula for butane, as it represents the actual number of atoms of each element in a single molecule of the compound. The empirical formula for butane would be CH5, as it shows the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in the compound.

How do you find molecular fomula?

To find the molecular formula of a compound, you need to know its empirical formula and molar mass. Divide the molar mass of the compound by the molar mass of the empirical formula to find the "multiplication factor." Multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by this factor to get the molecular formula.
