If the molecular weight of the compound C10HO3N5 is 194.19 g/mol. What is the molecular formula of the compound?
There seems to be a mistake in the given information. The molecular formula provided (C10HO3N5) does not match the given molecular weight (194.19 g/mol). Let's calculate the molecular weight for the provided molecular formula:
C10HO3N5:
- Carbon (C): 10 atoms * 12.01 g/mol (atomic mass) = 120.1 g/mol
- Hydrogen (H): 1 atom * 1.01 g/mol (atomic mass) = 1.01 g/mol
- Oxygen (O): 3 atoms * 16.00 g/mol (atomic mass) = 48.00 g/mol
- Nitrogen (N): 5 atoms * 14.01 g/mol (atomic mass) = 70.05 g/mol
Total molecular weight = 120.1 + 1.01 + 48.00 + 70.05 = 239.16 g/mol
So, the molecular weight for the provided molecular formula (C10HO3N5) is 239.16 g/mol, not 194.19 g/mol. Please double-check the given information and make sure it is correct before proceeding.
