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.
to get 5.17% of a number, multiply it by 0.0517 to get 35.9% of a number, multiply it by 0.359, and to get 58.9% of a number, multiply it by 0.589
Not completely. The empirical formula of a substance can be determined from its percent composition, but a determination of molecular weight is needed to decide which multiple of the empirical formula represents the molecular formula.

The empirical formula of this compound would be MgO.
The empirical formula of nicotine is C7H10N2, calculated by converting the percentages into moles and finding the simplest whole-number ratio. To find the molecular formula, divide the molar mass of nicotine by the empirical formula mass to get the multiple, which is 2. Therefore, the molecular formula of nicotine is C14H20N4.
The empirical formula for a molecule containing 46.8 percent si and 53.2 percent o is in the middle of the two. These added together and divided by two will net the average result.
You should solve for an empirical formula when you are given the percent composition of elements in a compound or when you have the molar mass of the compound but not the molecular formula. The empirical formula provides the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
The percent composition of a compound with the empirical formula CO2 is 27.3% carbon and 72.7% oxygen.
