Answer:
CaCO3: empirical.
C6H12O6: not empirical.
NaMnO4: empirical.
Ba3(PO4)2: empirical.
K2C2O4: not empirical.
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, since the empirical formula of a chemical compound is the smallest whole number ratio of atoms of each element in the compound, for each compound we proceed as follows:
CaCO3: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.
C6H12O6: not empirical since the smallest whole number ratio of atoms would be CH2O.
NaMnO4: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.
Ba3(PO4)2: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.
K2C2O4: not empirical since the smallest whole number ratio of atoms would be KCO2.
Best regards.
The chemical formula that are empirical and not empirical are:
- [tex]CaCO_3[/tex]- empirical
- [tex]C_6H_{12} O_6[/tex]- not empirical
- [tex]NaMnO_4[/tex]- empirical
- [tex]Ba_3(PO_4)_2[/tex]- empirical
- [tex]K_2C_2O_4[/tex]
- - not empirical
Empirical formula
A chemical compound's empirical formula is the smallest whole-number ratio of atoms of each element in the compound.
[tex]CaCO_3[/tex]: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.
[tex]C_6H_{12} O_6[/tex]: not empirical since the smallest whole number ratio of atoms would be [tex]CH_2O[/tex]
[tex]NaMnO_4[/tex]: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.
[tex]Ba_3(PO_4)_2[/tex]: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.
[tex]K_2C_2O_4[/tex]: not empirical since the smallest whole number ratio of atoms would be [tex]KCO_2[/tex]
