Question:
Molecules of a dicarboxylic acid have two carboxyl groups (–COOH). A 2.250 g sample of a dicarboxylic acid was burned in an excess of oxygen and yielded 4.548 g CO2 and 1.629 g H2O. In a separate experiment, the molecular mass of the acid was found to be 174 u. From these data, what can we deduce about the structural formula of this acid?
