Nitric Oxide (NO)
The empirical formula for nitric oxide is the same as its molecular formula:
- Empirical Formula: NO
- Molecular Formula: NO
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO₂)
For nitrogen dioxide, the formulas differ slightly:
- Empirical Formula: NO
- Molecular Formula: NO₂
Summary
In summary, both nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide share the empirical formula NO, but their molecular formulas differ, reflecting the number of oxygen atoms present in each compound.
