Answer:

First Method: Vacuum Distillation and Chromatographic separation of the remains that were precipitated out from the peel.

Second Method: Extraction of components from orange peels by help of precipitation procedures that are mostly done <em>In Situ. </em>Those components can be recovered using the saponification process. Then these are examined under UV light spectroscopy. Now, the existence and extent of carotenoids can be determined by checking the levels of anti-oxidants.

The molar mass of the compound was found to be 30.069 g/mol. what is the molecular formula? express your answer as a chemical fo
kodGreya [7K]

For us to accurately determine what compound this is, additional info must be given. However I can suggest two compounds which have molecular mass of about 30.07 g/mol.

1. It could be NO or nitric oxide.

The molecular mass is 16 + 14= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.01 g/mol

 

2. It could also be (CH3)2  or ethane.

The molecular mass is 2*12+ 6*1= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.07 g/mol.

 

<span>So we could say it more likely to to be (CH3)2 </span>
