Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound .
the molecular formula for the compounds given are as follows
ethyne - C₂H₂
ethene - C₂H₄
ethane - C₂H₆
methane - CH₄
the actual ratios of the elements simplified ratio
C : H C : H
ethyne 2:2 1:1
ethene 2:4 1:2
ethane 2:6 1:3
methane 1:4 1:4
the only compound where the actual ratio is equal to the simplified ratio is methane
therefore in methane molecular formula CH₄ is the same as empirical formula CH₄

TNT has the molecular formula: C7H5N3O6. And hence, when reacted in oxygen gas, you get what is known as <span>combustion</span> reaction. the reaction is: <span><span>C7</span><span>H5</span><span>N3</span><span>O6</span>+<span>O2</span>→C<span>O2</span>+<span>N2</span>+<span>H2</span><span>O</span></span>
A lone oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell which is not very stable, whereas as full octet (8 outer shell electrons) is stable. In order to achieve this two oxygen atoms will share 4 electrons, each contributing 2 electrons. Since these electrons exist within the orbitals of both atoms, to oxygen atoms essentially achieve a full octet.
Answer:
What is the name of the compound (NH4) 3PO4? (NH)4+ is an ammonium radical and (PO4) 3- is a phospate radical. When we start writing the compound,the valency of phosphate goes to ammonium as subscript,and that of ammonium goes to phosphate. Hence the formula (NH4)3 PO4 and it's name is ammonium phospate.
