Asked by Jazmyne

In the molecular weight determination experiment, what would be the effect if some air remains in the flask after the compound was completely vaporized?
Answered by DrBob222
The molecular weight of the compound would be some kind of a weighted average between the compound and the air that was left.

Not certain of your procedure, however if you were measuring volume, and air were incuded, then your moles calcuated would be too high, and so the mol mass too low.
