This category involves the derivation and application of molar ratios from the subscripts within a chemical formula, rather than stoichiometric coefficients, to relate the moles of constituent elements within a compound. This is foundational for empirical and molecular formula determination.
PRACTICE PROBLEM #3.1
Dinitrogen pentoxide has the molecular formula $\text{N}_2\text{O}_5$. What is the molar ratio of nitrogen atoms to oxygen atoms in a sample of this compound? If a sample contains $0.40$ moles of $\text{N}_2\text{O}_5$ molecules, how many moles of oxygen atoms does it contain?

PRACTICE PROBLEM #3.2
Consider the ionic compound calcium phosphate, $\text{Ca}_3(\text{PO}_4)_2$. Determine the mole ratio of calcium ions ($\text{Ca}^{2+}$) to phosphate ions ($\text{PO}_4^{3-}$) and the mole ratio of oxygen atoms to phosphorus atoms within the compound.

PRACTICE PROBLEM #3.3
A newly synthesized hydrocarbon is found to be composed of $79.89\%$ Carbon and $20.11\%$ Hydrogen by mass. Assuming a $100.00 \text{ g}$ sample, convert the masses of C and H to moles. Then, use the moles to determine the smallest whole-number molar ratio between Carbon and Hydrogen (the empirical formula).
