The chemical formula that provides the most information about a chemical compound in increasing order is:
a molecular formula, a structural formula, a 3-D formula
So the correct response is:
a molecular formula, a structural formula, a 3-D formula.
This is because:
- A molecular formula gives the types and numbers of atoms but not their arrangement.
- A structural formula shows how the atoms are connected.
- A 3-D formula provides full information about the spatial arrangement of atoms in the molecule.
