An empirical formula is the "reduced" version of a molecular formula. For example, CH3 is the empirical formula for C2H6, C3H9, C4H12, and so forth. The difference in subscripts between an empirical formula and molecular formula is given by the constant n. If n is a whole number, this means the numerator is the molecular formula. So the answer is D. <span>subscript of C in molecular formula = n  subscript of C in empirical formula. This can be rewritten as:

n = subscript of C in molecular formula/subscript of C in empirical formula</span>

Count the total number of atoms in sio2:
grigory [225]
Atoms are the basic units of matter and the defining structure of elements. We count the number of atoms by the total number of elements present in the compound. In this case, we have 1 atom of Si and 2 atoms of oxygen which would have 3 total number of atoms.

How can you tell that a chemical change has occurred?
Alik [6]

A. The products of the change are different from the starting

substances.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Whenever there is a physical change it may just affect the phase change but the properties remains the same. Whenever there is an occurrence of a chemical change, it was indicated by some of these things such as,

  • The products are exactly different from the products.
  • Chemical properties of these reactants are entirely different from that of the products.
  • Chemical composition as well as the physical properties of the reactants and the products will change
