Saccharin, which is used as an artificial sweetener, is made up of $45.90 \%$ by mass $\mathrm{C}, 2.75 \%$ by mass $\mathrm{H}, 26.20 \%$ by mass $\mathrm{O}, 7.65 \%$ by mass $\mathrm{N}$, and $17.50 \%$ by mass $\mathrm{S}$. If the molar mass of saccharin is $183.19 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}$, what is its molecular formula?

Saccharin is more than 300 times sweeter than sugar. It was first made in $1897,$ a time when it was common practice for chemists to record the taste of any new substances they synthesized. (a) Write the molecular formula for the compound, and draw its structural formula. (S atoms are yellow.) (b) If you ingest 125 mg of saccharin, what amount (moles) of saccharin have you ingested? (c) What mass of sulfur is contained in 125 mg of saccharin? (FIGURE CAN'T COPY)
