Question

$\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical formula mass}}=n$ where n is always a whole number.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Divide the molar mass of the compound by the empirical formula mass.

The result should be a whole number or very close to a whole number. Multiply all the subscripts in the empirical formula by the whole number found in step 2. The result is the molecular formula

$\frac{Molecularmass}{Empiricalformulamass}=n$ where n is the whole number
