4. Two engineers are serving as trainees in a laboratory of a pharmaceutical company. One of their tasks involves determining the identity of a vitamin they were given by using any equipment or method at their disposal. As a hint, their supervisor gave them a list of possible candidates for the vitamins identity which includes: Vitamin Molecular Formula C20 H23 N,07 C3HNO3 C,H,N½O C17H29N406 Folinic Acid Pyridoxine Niacinamide Riboflavin To identify the vitamins identity, the two trainees separated their sample into two equal portions and performed two separate tests: [a.] Engr. Mayo used the flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer in order to identify the elemental composition of the sample which happens to be 59.0% C, 5.0% H and 22.9% N by mass [b.] Engr. Busog on the other hand mixed his 3.88 g sample with 30.0 mL of nitrobenzene, CGH5NO2 (Latent Heat of Fusion = 79.81 J/g). Using Beckmann's method, he determined the freezing point depression to be 7.1 deg C. Based on the tests performed, what is the identity of the vitamin sample?
