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>

<span>you have to find the differences of electronegativity for the atoms joined by the bond. if their diff is <0.4,
then it's non-polar if it's between 0.4 to 1.7
then it's polar 1.7 and up it's ionic Electronegativity values can be found on most periodic tables.</span>

That would be lactic acid fermentation. When the body is low on oxygen, and has a high amount of NADH, the pyruvate from glycolysis is fermented into L-lactate.
