The
reaction of alkyi halide with sodium alkoxide to give ether (alkoxy
alkane), is known as Williamsons synthesis. In this reaction an ether
(anisole) is prepared by the action of alkyi halide (methyl iodide) on
sodium alkoxide (sodium phenate), so it is an example of Williamsons
synthesis.

Molecular formula is the exact no. of atoms present in a molecule of a compound.
Molecular formula of a compound is related with its empirical formula as ,
Mollecular formula = ( Empirical formula ) n
where n represents a positive integer .
