Element

Mass ratio

Atomic mass

Relative Number of atoms

Simplest ratio

C

9

12

9/12 = 0.75

0.75X4=3

H

1

1

1/1=1

1X4=4

N

3.5

3.5

3.5/14=0.25

0.25X4=1

 

Empirical ratio = C3H4N

Empirical formula mass = (3x12)+(4x1)+14= 54

n=      Molecular mass               = 108 = 2

      Empirical formula mass            54 

Molecular formula = (empirical formula)2  = (C3H4N)2  = C6H8N2
