The first step in identifying an unknown sample, we need to determine the empirical formula from percent composition. For an organic compound containing only C, H and O, the laboratory sent these results:
C 70.55 % H 10.66 % O 18.80 %
Enter the subscripts of the empirical formula. If one of the subscripts is 1, you must enter it here -- although this is not normal.
C 5 H 9 O 1
The next step is to determine the molecular formula from mass spectrum. The laboratory sent these results:
formula weight was found between 168.

The first step in identifying an unknown sample, we need to determine the empirical formula from percent composition. For an organic compound containing only C, H and O, the laboratory sent these results:
C 70.55 % H 10.66 % O 18.80 %
Enter the subscripts of the empirical formula. If one of the subscripts is 1, you must enter it here -- although this is not normal.
C 5	H 9	 O 1
The next step is to determine the molecular formula from mass spectrum. The laboratory sent these results:
formula weight was found between 168.
