Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 16310-68-2 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 1,6,3,1 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 16310-68:
(7*1)+(6*6)+(5*3)+(4*1)+(3*0)+(2*6)+(1*8)=82
82 % 10 = 2
So 16310-68-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
