To determine the molecular formula of the compound composed of 74% C, 8.7% H, and 17.3% N by mass, and with a molecular mass of 162, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Assume a Sample Size Assume a sample size of 100 grams for easier calculation. This means: - Mass of Carbon (C) = 74 grams - Mass of Hydrogen (H) = 8.7 grams - Mass of Nitrogen (N) = 17.3 grams ...
