Answer:

Relative molecular of the compound or infomation like vapour density, volume occupied by a known mass of its vapour at stp, etc

Step-by-step explanation:

The molecular mass of a compound is twice its vapour density. We can find the molecular formula using the relationship below:

  • Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. It repeats itself "n" times to become a molecular formula i.e (EF)ₙ = MF...... n is the number of times the empirical formula presents in a mole of the compound.
  • Most times, n is a whole number like 1,2,3,.....
