QUESTION:
Problem 46P
Draw the structure of a saturated hydrocarbon that has a molecular ion with an m/z value of 128.
ANSWER:
Solution 46P
The compound has m/z value of 128. Divide 128 by 13 then we get 9 and the remainder will be 11. Thus, the molecule indicates that it contains only C and H in it.
Therefore, the number of carbons in the molecule is 9 and the number of hydrogen atoms in the molecule is.
Hence, the molecular formula could be
