Question:

A compound is analyzed and found to contain 54.53% carbon, 9.15% hydrogen, and 36.32% oxygen by mass. A mass spectrometry experiment shows that the molar mass is 44 g/mol. What is the molecular formula? There are two reasonable ways to draw noncyclic skeleton structures of this molecule. Draw the Lewis structure for each, indicating the bond angles and hybridization of each central atom.
