Part 6: STRUCTURE DETERMINATION

EA: Since is does not add up to 100%, we should assume the "lost" % is oxygen. The % data allows one can get the empirical formula = C3H6O which we are told equals the molecular formula.

From here we get the IHD = 1 (indicating the possibility of one ring, or, one pi bond which could be C=C or C=O here)

There are 10 possible isomers (expected):

Functional groups: ether, alcohol, alkene, ketone, aldehyde, cycloalkane.
