To determine the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the compound, we assume a basis of the compound of 100 g. We do as follows:
Mass Moles
K 52.10 52.10/39.10 = 1.33 1.33/1.32 ≈ 1
C 15.8 15.8/12 = 1.32 1.32/1.32 ≈ 1
O 32.1 32.1 / 16 = 2.01 2.01/1.32 ≈ 1.5
The empirical formula would most likely be KCO.
The molecular formula would be K2C2O3.

Explanation: they cannot be separated
Explanation:
The basis for classifying changes in matter into physical and chemical change is to see if a material is altered after going through a process.
In a physical change only the state of matter is usually altered especially its form or shape.
Chemical change alters a substance by producing new kinds that are totally different from it.
- In a chemical change, new kinds of matter are usually formed.
- Such changes are usually irreversible.
- Change of state is a reversible process.
