Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 21078-81-9 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,1,0,7 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 1 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 21078-81:
(7*2)+(6*1)+(5*0)+(4*7)+(3*8)+(2*8)+(1*1)=89
89 % 10 = 9
So 21078-81-9 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
