Yes. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a molecular compound.
The molecular mass of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is 176,1241 and the chemical formula is C6H8O6.
Nope. Vitamin C is an compound.
Vitamin C is the ascorbic acid: C6H8O6.
Yes, vitamin c is ascorbic acid.
Nope. Vitamin C is an compound.
The compound C9H8O4 is aspirin. This compound has a molar mass of 180.1574 g/mol. Aspirin is made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

The problem with giving molecular formulas for organic compounds is that it could be lots of different things. Nothing with that particular molecular formula is leaping to mind as a most likely candidate.
Citric acid gives a vitamin c tablet its sour taste. (Got it from science book)
I think it's C3H4O3.
To find the molecular formula from the empirical formula, we need to know the molar mass of the empirical formula. In this case, the empirical formula's molar mass is 88. To find the molecular formula, we divide the given molecular mass (176) by the empirical formula's molar mass (88) to get 2. This means the molecular formula of Vitamin C is twice the empirical formula, so the molecular formula is C6H8O6.
Vitamin C or L-ascorbateIS AN ORGANIC COMPUND!! =]
