Chemical Formula Calculator

The representation of a chemical compound in chemistry is called as a chemical formula. Chemical formula gives the number of atoms of an element in a given chemical compound. The calculator tool used to write the chemical formula of a given compound is called as chemical formula calculator.

Example 1: What is the chemical formula for calcium carbonate?

The given chemical compound is calcium carbonate which has a calcium ion and carbonate ion in it.

Calcium is a metallic ion which is written as Ca²⁺

Carbonate is a non-metallic ion which is written as (CO₃)^2-

Here calcium ion loses two electrons which are gained by the carbonate ion.

Therefore the chemical formula for calcium carbonate is written as CaCO₃.

Example 2: What is the chemical formula for Magnesium Sulfate?

The given chemical compound is Magnesium sulfate which has a Magnesium ion and sulfate ion in it.

Magnesium is a metallic ion which is written as Mg²⁺

Sulfate is a non-metallic ion which is written as (SO₄)^2-

Here Magnesium ion loses two electrons which are gained by the sulfate ion.

Therefore, the chemical formula for Magnesium Sulfate is written as Mg(SO4).

Your tutor has been such an inspiration to me as I have difficulty getting some of the physics concepts down and truly understanding them. She takes the time to fully explain each and every aspect of any problem I might ask for help and always with encouragement and humor.
