The formula CHN describes a molecule made of 1 carbon atom, 1 hydrogen atom and 1 nitrogen atom. It is written in Hill notation: carbon first, then hydrogen, then the other elements in alphabetical order. The formula tells you which atoms are present, not how they are connected, which is why several different chemicals can share it.

Frequently asked questions
What is the molar mass of CHN?
The molar mass of CHN is 27.03 g/mol, calculated from standard atomic weights for 1 carbon atom, 1 hydrogen atom and 1 nitrogen atom. The monoisotopic mass is 28.0172 Da.
How many compounds have the formula CHN?
CompoundList lists 3 compounds with the molecular formula CHN, including Hydrogen cyanide, Hydroisocyanic acid, Hydrocyanic acid-d. Compounds that share a formula are isomers. They contain the same atoms arranged differently, so their properties, uses and prices can be very different.
What is the degree of unsaturation of CHN?
CHN has a degree of unsaturation of 2. That is the total number of rings and pi bonds (a double bond counts as one, a triple bond as two) in any structure with this formula.
