Answer:

K8S4O16 or K8(SO4)4 depending on if the SO4 is supposed to represent sulfate or not

Explanation:

Find the molar mass of K2SO4 first:

2K + S + 4O ≈ 174 g/mol

Divide the goal molar mass of 696 by the molar mass of the empirical formula:

696 / 174 = 4

This means you need to multiply everything in the empirical formula by 4:

K2SO4 --> K8S4O16 or K8(SO4)4 depending on if the SO4 is for sulfate or not
