Take a hypothetical sample of exactly 100. grams of the compound:
(1.20 g H) / (1.007947 g H/mol) = 1.19054 mol H
(42.00 g Cl) / (35.4532 g Cl/mol) = 1.184660 mol Cl
(56.80 g O) / (15.99943 g O/mol) = 3.550126 mol O
Divide by the smallest number of moles:
(1.19054 mol H) / 1.184660 mol = 1.00496
(1.184660 mol Cl) / 1.184660 mol = 1.0000
(3.550126 mol O) / 1.184660 mol = 2.9967
