Correctly order the steps necessary to calculate the empirical formula of a compound, assuming that the masses of each element of the compound are provided. Start with the first step at the top of the list. t Place these in the proper order. O Write a chemical formula containing fractional subscripts.
O Verify that the integer subscripts cannot be divided by a common factor. O Calculate the number of moles of each element of the sample using mass molar mass O Divide each subscript by the smallest subscript. O If integers are not obtained, multiply each subscript by the smallest integer that gives all integer subscripts.
