Aniline, a starting compound for urethane plastic foams, consists of C, H, and N. Combustion of such compounds yields CO₂, H₂O, and N₂ as products. If the combustion of 9.71 mg of aniline yields 6.63mg H₂O and 1.46 mg N₂, what is the empirical formula? The molecular weight of aniline is 93 amu. What is the molecular formula?
