Flammability and Explosibility
Notclassified
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 104-67-6 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 1,0 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 104-67:
(5*1)+(4*0)+(3*4)+(2*6)+(1*7)=36
36 % 10 = 6
So 104-67-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
