Question:

You work in a semiconductor production plant that relies on several chlorofluorocarbons in its manufacturing process. One day, you find an unlabeled gas cylinder, and you are assigned to figure out what is in the tank. First, you fill a 1.000-L flask with the gas. At a pressure of 250.0 torr and a temperature of 25.00°C, you determine that the mass of the gas in the flask is 2.2980 g. Then, you send the flask to an outside lab for elemental analysis, and they report that the gas contains 14.05% C, 44.46% F, and 41.48% Cl by mass. Find the molecular formula of this gas.
