Answer:

75.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The isomers contains the similar and accurate chemical formulas but at the same time the structure of the molecular is different. This represents that the masses of the molecular would be similar

Therefore the molecular mass of methyl ethanoate, i.e. an isomer propanoic acid is 75.1 i.e. equivalent to the molecular mass of the propanoic acid

So, it should be 75.1
