Molecular Weight by the Dumas Method
This page will perform your Dumas calculations. Use it to verify that you are doing the data treatment correctly. The program, for simplicity, assumes that your boiling water was at 100oC and that
the atmospheric pressure was 1.00atm. If your actual lab conditions were different from that, you will
get an answer very slightly different from those shown on the form.
Instructions
