The true ratio of atoms in a molecule or formula unit is called molecular formula

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

This is the simplest formula that shows the ratio of the different atoms present in a compound.

<h3>What is molecular formula?</h3>

This is the formula of a compound which gives the true or actual ratios of the different atoms present in a compound

<h3>What is molar mass?</h3>

The molar mass of a compound is defined as the sum total of the molar masses of the different atoms present in the compound.

<h3>What is percentage composition?</h3>

This gives the proportion of the different atoms present in a compound.

From the above definitions, we can conclude that the correct answer to the question is molecular formula

Examples of polar covalent bonds

mars1129 [50]

A water molecule, abbreviated as H2O, is an example of a polar covalent bond. The electrons are unequally shared, with the oxygen atom spending more time with electrons than the hydrogen atoms. Since electrons spend more time with the oxygen atom, it carries a partial negative charge.

How is the mass of 1 mole of an element determined

Tatiana [17]

One mole (abbreviated mol) is equal to 6.022×1023 molecular entities (Avogadro's number), and each element has a different molar mass depending on the weight of 6.022×1023 of its atoms (1 mole). The molar mass of any element can be determined by finding the atomic mass of the element on the periodic table.

How can an electron cloud be compared with a spinning airplane propeller? Both represent objects that move in a circular motion

adelina 88 [10]

The answer is that exact locations within either cannot be determined at any given moment in time.

An electron cloud be compared with a spinning airplane propeller in the manner that in both exact location within either cannot be determined at any given moment in time.

In both electron cloud as well as spinning airplane propeller, there is a probability of finding either but exact location can not be determined.
