You can only calculate the empirical formula because you do not have a mass of this compound given. To do the empirical formula assume 100 grams and change percent to grams. Get moles. 80 grams Carbon (1 mole C/12.01 grams) = 6.66 moles C 20 grams hydrogen (1 mole H/1.008 grams) = 19.84 moles H the smallest becomes 1 in the empirical formula and the other number is divided by it, Thus; H/C 19.84 moles H/6.66 moles C = 2.9, which we call 3 so, CH3 --------------- is the empirical formula To get the molecular formula tour question needed to read; How to calculate molecular formula from such ans such mass of compound with these percentages of elements, Which, of course, your question did not provide. Then you would have divided that given mass by the mass total of the elements of the empirical formula, got a whole number by which you would have multiplied the numbers of your empirical formula to get molecular formula.

If the annual interest rate is r%, then the equivalent daily compound rate is100*{(1 + r/100)^(1/365) - 1} %where the exponent of (1/365) represents the 365th root.You could adjust for leap years either by using 365.25 or using a different rate for leap years.
The law of constant proportion states that a pure chemical compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by mass.This information, together with the atomic masses of the elements in the compound enable scientists to determine the formula of a compound.

The empirical formula for C12H12 is CH. The empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of elements in a compound.
To determine the empirical formula of a compound, you need the molar masses of its elements and their ratio in the compound. Calculate the ratio of the elements in terms of whole numbers, which will give you the empirical formula.
The empirical formula for the compound WO2 is simply WO2 as it represents the simplest whole number ratio of the elements present in the compound.
The empirical formula for a compound represents the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in a molecule. For the molecular formula N2O4, the empirical formula is NO2 because it shows the simplest ratio of nitrogen and oxygen atoms present in the compound.
No, the empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound, while the molecular formula shows the actual number of each element present in a compound. Therefore, the empirical formula cannot be triple the molecular formula.
The empirical formula for silicon IV oxide is SiO2, which represents the simplest whole number ratio of atoms in the compound.
The empirical formula for Hg₂F₂ is HgF. This is because the empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
The empirical formula for oxalic acid (H2C2O4) is CO2, as it represents the simplest whole-number ratio of the elements present in the compound.
The empirical formula for the compound P406 is P2O3, which represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in the compound.
The empirical formula of a compound represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms present in the compound. For C4H10, there is a common factor of 2 for both carbon and hydrogen, so the empirical formula would be C2H5.
An empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of elements in a compound. It does not necessarily reflect the actual number of atoms in a molecule but provides information on the relative proportions of elements in a compound.
