Empirical formula and molecular formula are important concepts in chemistry and common calculations. The empirical formula of a compound is its simplest chemical formula, expressed as a ratio of elements in the compound. The molecular formula also states the elements in a compound, except the molecular formula gives how many atoms of each element are present. In some cases the empirical and molecular formulas are the same, but the expressions and calculations can be different.
Here is detailed step-by-step tutorial that walks you through sample empirical and molecular formula calculations. There are links to definitions and additional examples, so hopefully you'll have a good understanding of what these concepts mean and how to work with them. Be sure to let me know if you need additional examples or explanations.
