Chemical formula for an ionic compound is stated in term of its empirical formula. Ionic compounds do not exist in the form of simple molecules. At room conditions all ionic compounds are crystalline solid that consists of positively and negatively charged ions that are held together by a network of electrostatic attractive forces of attraction (ionic bond). “The whole crystalline solid is a molecule”

Calculating the Empirical Formula
In general, the empirical formula of a compound can be determine from the masses of the elements that combine together.
Determination of the empirical formula of magnesium oxide:
Mass of the crucible + the lid = 21.02 g
Mass of the crucible + the lid + Mg ribbon = 21.50 g
Mass of the crucible + the lid + magnesium oxide = 21.82 g
![Page 11: Chemical Formulae](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082808/555040a3b4c90580748b4a16/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Mass of the crucible + the lid = 21.02 g
Mass of the crucible + the lid + Mg ribbon = 21.50 g
Mass of the crucible + the lid + magnesium oxide = 21.82 g
Mass of magnesium burnt = (21.50 – 21.02)g = 0.48 g
Mass of oxygen used = ( 21.82 – 21.50) = 0.32 g
elements Mg O
Mass 0.48 g 0.32 g
Number of moles of atom 0.48/24 = 0.02 mol 0.32/16 = 0.02
The simplest ratio 0.02/0.02 = 1 0.02/0.02 = 1
The empirical formula = MgO
