Empirical Formulas
Empirical Formulas The lowest whole-number ratio of
atoms of the elements in a compound.
Empirical Formulas are much like creating a recipe of elements. Orange Juice 1 can of concentrate to 3
cans of water = (OJ)1(H2O)3 = 1:3 ratio Double Batch
(OJ)2(H2O)6 = 2:6 = 1:3 ratio

Empirical Formulas
Steps in determining Empirical Formulas :1. Assume that the percent given is equal to the
number of grams in a 100 gram sample. Meaning…remove the % and add g for the
units. 2. Convert the grams to moles using the molar
mass.3. Divide each mole value by the smallest mole
calculated to determine a ratio. 4. If all the values are not near a whole number
(_.8-_.2 range), multiply ALL the values by 2 or 3 until the values are all whole numbers.
5. Give the Empirical Formula

Empirical Formulas
Practice with Steps A compound is analyzed and found to
contain 23.9 % nitrogen and 74.1 % oxygen. Find the empirical formula of the compound. Step 1: Assume percents are grams
Nitrogen = 23.9% = 23.9g Oxygen = 74.1% = 74.1g

Empirical Formulas
Practice with Steps A compound is analyzed and found to
contain 23.9 % nitrogen and 74.1 % oxygen. Find the empirical formula of the compound. Step 2: Convert to moles using molar mass
Nitrogen = 23.9 g 1 mol =1.85 mol Nitrogen
14 g Oxygen = 74.1 g 1 mol = 4.63 mol Oxygen
16 g

Empirical Formulas
Practice with Steps A compound is analyzed and found to
contain 23.9 % nitrogen and 74.1 % oxygen. Find the empirical formula of the compound. Step 3: Divide each mole by the
smallest mole value Nitrogen = 1.85 mol ÷ 1.85 mol =
1mol of NOxygen = 4.63 mol ÷ 1.85 mol = 2.5
mol of O

Empirical Formulas
Practice with Steps A compound is analyzed and found to
contain 23.9 % nitrogen and 74.1 % oxygen. Find the empirical formula of the compound. Step 4: Multiply the moles by a
coefficient to have whole number ratios. Nitrogen = 1 mol x 2 = 2 mol of NOxygen = 2.5 mol x 2 = 5 mol of O
Step 5: Give Empirical FormulaN2O5

Molecular Formulas
Molecular Formulas Based on Empirical Formulas Most molecular formulas are empirical
formulas, but some molecular formulas are not the lowest ratios.Example: Hydrogen Peroxide
Empirical Formula HOMolecular Formula H2O2

Molecular Formulas
Practice Calculate the molecular formula of a
compound whose mass is 60.0 g and empirical formula is CH4N.
Find the molar mass of the empirical formula CH4 N = 30.0 g/mol

Molecular Formulas
Practice Calculate the molecular formula of a
compound whose mass is 60.0 g and empirical formula is CH4N.
Divide the molecular mass by the empirical mass Molecular mass/ empirical mass (60.0 / 30.0 ) = 2

Molecular Formulas
Practice Calculate the molecular formula of a
compound whose mass is 60.0 g and empirical formula is CH4N.
Multiply the empirical formula subscripts by the coefficient found in step 2. C (1x2) H (4x2) N (1x2) = C2H8N2
