Determining Empirical Formula Lab Introduction: One can find an empirical formula by taking a sample of a compound and dividing the number of moles of one element in the compound by the number of moles of another element in the compound to form a small wholenumber formula. For example‚ in a sample of a made up compound of oxygen and lead‚ one mole of lead has a molar mass of 207.2 g/mole‚ and oxygen has a molar mass of 16 g/mole. If this compound forms in a one to one atom ratio‚ then the ratio
