Answer:
Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆
Explanation:
Given data:
Molar mass of compound = 180g/mol
Empirical formula = CH₂O
Molecular formula = ?
Solution:
Formula:
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
n = Molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass
empirical formula mass = CH₂O = 12+2+ 16 = 30 g/mol
n = 180g/mol /30 g/mol
n = 6
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
Molecular formula = 6 (CH₂O)
Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆
