Identification of Acetone Chemical Compound
Chemical Formula | C3H6O |
---|---|
Molecular Weight | 58.07914 g/mol |
IUPAC Name | propan-2-one |
SMILES String | CC(C)=O |

Chemical Formula Description
The acetone molecule contains a total of 10 atom(s). There are 6 Hydrogen atom(s), 3 Carbon atom(s), and 1 Oxygen atom(s). A chemical formula of acetone can therefore be written as:
C3H6O
The chemical formula of acetone shown above is based on the molecular formula indicating the numbers of each type of atom in a molecule without structural information, which is different from the empirical formula which provides the numerical proportions of atoms of each type.
The above chemical formula is the basis of stoichiometry in chemical equations, i.e., the calculation of relative quantities of reactants and products in chemical reactions. The law of conservation of mass dictates that the quantity of each element given in the chemical formula does not change in a chemical reaction. Thus, each side of the chemical equation must represent the same quantity of any particular element based on the chemical formula.

InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier) information of acetone
The molecular chemical formulas lack structural information. An alternative textual expression including the structural information is InChI. The full standard InChI of acetone is:
InChI=1S/C3H6O/c1-3(2)4/h1-2H3
It can provide a standard way to encode the molecular information of acetone to facilitate the search for the compound information in databases and on the web.
The condensed, 27 character standard InChIKey (hashed version of the full standard InChI) of acetone is:
InChIKey=CSCPPACGZOOCGX-UHFFFAOYSA-N
The InChIKey may allow easier web searches for acetone, but it needs to be linked to the full InChI to get back to the original structure of the acetone since the full standard InChI cannot be reconstructed from the InChIKey.
