Example:The molar mass of NaOH isNa 22.98 g/molO 16 g/molH 1 g/molTotal: 39.98 g/molCalculating Percent Composition Percent composition is calculated by dividing the mass of an individual element by the mass of the whole compound and then multiplying by 100.NaOH:Percent Composition of Na:(22.98/39.98) x 100 = 57.5%Percent Composition of O:(16/39.98) x 100 = 40%Percent Composition of H:(1/39.98) x 100 = 2.5%

The empirical formula of a compound is the formula with the smallest whole-number ratio of elements. Find the empirical formula for a compound that is 40.05% S and 59.95% O.If we assume that we have 100 g of this compound:How many grams of Sulfur do we have?40.05 g How many grams of Oxygen do we have?59.95 gConvert from grams to moles:40.05 g S x 1 mol S/32.07 g S = 1.249 mol59.95 g O x 1 mol O/16.00 g O = 3.747 mol

Sometimes the empirical formula is not the actual formula for the compound.Find the empirical formula for hydrogen peroxide which has a molar mass of 34 g/mol and is 5.9% Hydrogen and 94.1% Oxygen

Molecular FormulaA compounds molecular formula is its actual formula (not always the same as empirical formula)To determine the true molecular formula for a compound its molar mass must be known (either looked up or found experimentally).Once we know the molar mass and the empirical formula we can find the true formula of the compound.

Example:Acetylene is a highly flammable compound used in blow torches. Acetylene has a molar mass of 26.04 g/mol. It is 92.2% Carbon and 7.8% Hydrogen. What is the chemical formula of Acetylene?Step 1: Find empirical formula:CHStep 2: Calculate molar mass of empirical formula. (If the molar mass is the same as the actual molar mass then the empirical formula is the true formula.)13.02 g/molStep 3: Divide real molar mass by the molar mass of the empirical formula.26.04/13.02 = 2.000Step 4: Multiply all atoms in the empirical formula by the answer to the true formula.C2H2
