A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

Select the correct empirical formula for each molecular formula given.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

CH₂O

Explanation:

Empirical formula:

It is the simplest formula gives the ratio of atoms of different elements in small whole number.

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula shows the actual whole number ratio of elements present in compound.

Given molecular formula: C₆H₁₂O₆

Empirical formula = CH₂O

In molecular formula six moles of carbon six moles of oxygen and 12 moles of hydrogen are present.

To get the smallest whole number we divide the each number by 6 and we get CH₂O which is empirical formula of C₆H₁₂O₆.
