Find the molecular formula of the alkane represented in the mass spectrum. A mass spectrum. The peak at mass 100 has an 8% relative abundance. THe peak with mass 85 has a 40% abundance. The peak at 71 has a 3% abundance. The peak at 57 has a 30% abundance. The peak at mass 43 has a 100% abundance. The peak at mass 29 has an 18% abundance. molecular formula:C_{n}H_{x}CnHx Replace the subscript letters with numbers. Formatting counts.

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.

the formula mass of a molecule or a compound is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula

(that's what i know about formula mass)

answer; 4 electrons;
