A. A 13.98 gram sample of an organic compound
containing C, H and O is analyzed by combustion analysis and
20.85 grams of CO2 and
6.402 grams of H2O are produced.
In a separate experiment, the molar mass is found to be
118.1 g/mol. Determine the empirical formula and
the molecular formula of the organic compound.
- Enter the elements in the order C, H, O
B. When 2.543 grams of a hydrocarbon,
CxHy, were burned in a combustion analysis
apparatus, 7.979 grams of CO2 and
3.267 grams of H2O were produced.
In a separate experiment, the molar mass of the compound was found
to be 28.05 g/mol. Determine the empirical formula
and the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon.
- Enter the elements in the order presented in the
question.
