To determine the subscript of an element in a molecular formula the empirical mass must be multiplied by the actual mass?
The actual mass must be divided by the empirical mass. This was derived from the following equation: (subscript)(empirical formula) = (molecular formula) subscript = (molecular formula)/(empirical formula)
The analysis of an organic compound showed that it contains 0.175 mol C 0.140 mol H and 0.035 mol N. Its molecular mass is about 160 gmol. What is the subscript on C in the chemical formula?
The compound's empirical formula is CH3N, and its molecular formula is C4H12N. Therefore, the subscript on C in the chemical formula is 4.
How does one determine a molecular formula from the empirical form?
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
What is the molecular formula of a compound with the empirical formula NH2Cl and molar mass of 51.5g mol?
The empirical formula NH2Cl has a molar mass of 51.5 g/mol, so the molecular formula can be determined by finding the ratio of the molar mass of the molecular formula to the molar mass of the empirical formula. The molecular formula of the compound is therefore NH2Cl2.
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.

What is the properly written empirical formula of a compound of molecular formula C6H12 with a molar mass equal to 84.16 gram per mol?
The information about the actual molar mass is superfluous. Given any molecular formula, the corresponding empirical may be obtained by dividing all the subscripts in the molecular by the largest integer that yield an integer quotient for each subscript. In the given formula, the empirical formula is CH2.

What steps are used to convert an empirical formula into a molecular formula?
By determining the molecular mass, then dividing the molecular mass by the formula mass of the empirical formula to determine by what integer the subscripts in the empirical formula must be multiplied to produce the molecular formula with the experimentally determined molecular mass.
How do you know when to solve for a empirical formula?
You should solve for an empirical formula when you are given the percent composition of elements in a compound or when you have the molar mass of the compound but not the molecular formula. The empirical formula provides the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a 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.
The combustion data for an unknown compound containing carbon hydrogen and oxygen was analyzed and the empirical formula for the unknown was found to be C3H5O The molar mass of the unknown was found?
To find the molecular formula from the empirical formula (C3H5O) and molar mass, you need to calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula. Then, divide the molar mass of the unknown compound by the molar mass of the empirical formula to get a ratio. Finally, multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula (C3H5O) by this ratio to determine the molecular formula of the unknown compound.
How does one determine a molecule formula from the empirical formula?
The density or some other information must be given that allow you to find the molar mass. Calculate the empirical formula mass. Divide molar mass by empirical formula mass. This answer is multiplied by all subscripts of the empirical formula to get the molecular formula.
What is the molecular formula of a compound with an empirical formula of C4H9 and a gram formula mass of 114 grams mole?
To determine the molecular formula from the empirical formula and gram formula mass, first calculate the empirical formula mass of C4H9 (4 carbons + 9 hydrogens). Then, divide the gram formula mass by the empirical formula mass to find the ratio. Finally, multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula by this ratio to get the molecular formula, which in this case is C8H18.
A compound has a mass of 16.7g 12.7g Iodine 4g Oxygen Therefore the empirical formula is I2O5 What additional information do you need to work out the molecular formula?
To determine the molecular formula, you would need the molar mass of the compound. With the molar mass, you can calculate the empirical formula mass and then determine the ratio between the empirical formula mass and the molar mass to find the molecular formula.
