Question

Which of the following is a molecular formula?

  1. HCO
  2. CH2O
  3. C6H12O6
  4. All the above

hintHint:

The molecular formula shows the exact number of atoms in a compound.

The correct answer is: C6H12O6


    The molecular formula shows the exact number of atoms in a compound.
    The empirical formula of a chemical compound is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in a compound. HCO, CH2O are empirical formula. 

    C6H12O6 is a molecular formula. Sometimes empirical formula and molecular formula can be same.
