Unknown compound D has a melting point of 102-103 degrees C. Carbon/ Hydrogen analysis of compound D showed 30.4% carbon and 2.1% Hydrogen. A Carius sulfur analysis of a 8.45 mg sample of compound D yielded 8.32 mg of BaSO{4}. A 10.50 mg sample of compound D was reacted in a sodium fusion reactor and the resulting solution produced 8.32 mg of AgBr. Based on mass spectral data, the M+ peak was found to be approximately 235-240. Treatment of compound D with aqueous acid and heat yielded a compound with the formula C{6}H{5}Br. Determine the molecular formula for compound D.
