What is relationship between empirical formula and formula unit?

A formula unit includes the correct number of each kind of atoms present in a molecule of a covalently bonded compound, but an empirical formula does not necessarily do so. An empirical formula is reliable with respect to the ratios between each kind of atom, but the molecule may contain any positive integral number of empirical formulas, including one.

How many of each kind of atom are in one molecule of the compound?

To determine the number of each kind of atom in a molecule of a compound, you need to refer to its chemical formula. The formula indicates the types of atoms present and their quantities, for example, in water (H₂O), there are two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. If you provide a specific compound, I can give you the exact count for that molecule.


What information is given by a molecular formula?

the empirical formula and the molar mass


A chemical formula shows the kind and number of atoms that form a?

molecule. It is a shorthand way to represent the elements and their proportions in a compound. The formula provides information about the composition of the substance.


How many hydrogen atoms are in one molecule of sugar?

That depends on what kind of sugar you're talking about. Table sugar, or sucrose, has the formula C12H22O11. One molecule of sucrose has 22 hydrogen atoms. Blood sugar, or glucose, has the formula C6H12O6. One molecule of glucose has 12 hydrogen atoms. Other types of sugar have different formulas. If you know the chemical formula, look at the subscript to the right of the H to see how many hydrogen atoms are in one molecule of sugar.


What information is conveyed when you write the molecular or structural formula for a molecule?

The actual number of atoms in a molecule


What happens when paraffin wax melts?

When paraffin wax melts, its solid crystals break down, turning into a liquid form. The melting point of paraffin wax is typically between 99°F and 131°F (37°C and 55°C), depending on the specific type of paraffin wax.


Why is the chemical formula of maltose not a multiple of its empirical formula?

Because you've gotten at least one of them wrong. The chemical formula of maltose is a multiple of its empirical formula, because that's kind of a requirement in the definition of "empirical formula."


What kind of molecule is a polymer?

A polymer molecule is a macromolecule.


What kind of wax should you use when making birthday candles?

Candle wax of course. Made of paraffin.


What is a molecule how do scientists show the chemical composition of molecules give an example?

A molecule is the smallest unit of most chemical compounds. Scientists use a kind of shorthand called a chemical formula that shows the type and number of elements in a molecule. For example, a water molecule is written as H2O, which means there are 2 atoms of Hydrogen and 1 atom of Oxygen.
