Elemental analysis of a compound with molar mass 342.3 g/mol gives the following mass percent composition: C 42.11%, H 6.48%, O 51.41%. Find the molecular formula of the compound.
Enter your answer in the space below using the following format: if the molecular formula of a compound containing elements X, Y, and Z is X2YZ3 enter your answer as X2YZ3.
Benzene is a carbohydrate ubiquitous to organic chemistry. Its structure was proposed near
the end of the 1800s by the, German chemist Kekul'e after he supposedly dreamt of a snake
devouring its own tail. Knowing that benzene has a percent composition of 92.24% carbon
and 7.76% hydrogen by mass and a molar mass of 78.11 g/mol, determine the compound's
molecular formulas. Please provide your answer as the value of n.
Unshared, or lone, electron pairs play an important role in determining the chemical and physical properties of organic
