Because there are no compounds that aren't molecules/molecular. The question as posed is nonsense. Rephrase?

Explain why the percent composition of certain compounds are not sufficient to determine the compounds molecular formulas?

Because unlike the empirical formula, the molecular formula does not have to be the simplest ratio.If by chance you are given the percent composition of the elements in a substance, you could calculate the empirical formula and then the empirical formula's mass. However, the molecular formula equation is molecular formula= (empirical formula)n, where n is the mass of the molecular formula divided by the mass of the empirical formula. You would, therefore, need to know the mass belonging to the molecular formula, which you are not given.


What molecular formulas are also an empirical formula?

Molecular formulas that are also empirical formulas include compounds like water (H2O), methane (CH4), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In these cases, the molecular formula is the same as the empirical formula because the compounds consist of only one type of atom.


Two compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas are?

Two compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas are isomers. Isomers are compounds with the same number and types of atoms but arranged differently. An example is ethanol (C2H6O) and dimethyl ether (C2H6O), both have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.
