Answer:

[tex]K_2TeO_3[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that:-

Moles of K = 1.10 moles

Moles of Te = 0.55 moles

Moles of O = 1.65 moles

Taking the simplest ratio of the moles of the elements as:-

   K : Te : O

1.10 : 0.55 : 1.65  

   2 :     1   : 3

Empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound. So, the empirical formula is:- [tex]K_2TeO_3[/tex]
