What is the definition of a mole?
The amount of a substance that contains as many particles as there are in 12 grams of carbon-12
3 of 12
Number of moles =
mass of a substance/molar mass

What is the difference between a molecular formula and an empirical formula?
The empirical formula just gives the smallest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound whereas the molecular formula is the actual number of molecules or atoms in a compound.
