Write the molecular formula for the compound that exhibits a molecular ion at M+ = 112.0499. Assume that C, H, N, and O might be present, and use the exact masses below: Exact mass of carbon = 12.000
Exact mass of hydrogen = 1.0078
Exact mass of nitrogen = 14.003
Exact mass of oxygen = 15.995

The order of atoms should be carbon, then hydrogen, then the others in alphabetical order.

C₆H₁₀NO

Explanation:

In order to arrive at a molecular formula we have to make some assumptions and they are

Assuming there is one ( 1 ) N and one ( 1 ) O that is present in the said molecule

Total mass =   29.998

next step: subtract the total mass from 112.0499 = 82.501

next : assume the presence of 6 carbon atoms in said molecule

Total mass =  6 * 12 = 72

Mass of Hydrogens = 82.501 - 72 = 10.501

∴ number of hydrogens = 10.501 / 1.0078  ≈ 10

Hence Total mass = 29.998 + 82.501  ≈ 112.0499

Finally Molecular formula = C₆H₁₀NO
