Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 96306-72-8 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 9,6,3,0 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 2 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 96306-72:
(7*9)+(6*6)+(5*3)+(4*0)+(3*6)+(2*7)+(1*2)=148
148 % 10 = 8
So 96306-72-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
