The empirical formula for two compounds that have very different properties (one tastes very sour and the other very sweet) is ch2o. if the molar mass of compound a is 60.05 g/mol and compound b is 180.16 g/mol, what are the molecular formulas for these compounds, respectively?

Molecular formula for compound a:

Molecular formula for compound b:

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

For empirical formula of , empirical weight is =

To calculate the molecular formula.:

1. For compound a:

The molecular formula will be=

2. For compound b:

The molecular formula will be=

explanation: no but i do not usually comment
