Problem: From the given empirical formula and molar mass, find the molecular formula of each compound.C6H7N, 186.27 g/mol
FREE Expert Solution
Given: C6H7N, 186.27 g/mol
To determine the molecular formula, we need to divide the molar mass by the empirical mass. The empirical mass is:
6 × 12.01 g/mol C = 72.06 g/mol C
7 × 1.01 g/mol H = 7.07 g/mol H
1 × 14.01 g/mol N = 14.01 g/mol N
Molar Mass = 93.14 g/mol
