Further explanation

Given

NHâ‚„Cl compound

Required

The number of atoms

Solution

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.  

A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.

A molecular formula is composed of two or more elements formed of the same or different types.

A subscript indicating the number of atoms forming a molecule

So for NHâ‚„Cl , there are 3 different elements, N, H and Cl, and the number is shown from the subscript

  • N : 1 atom
  • H : 4 atoms
  • Cl : 1 atom
