Combustion of any hrdrocarbon yields carbon dioxide and water such that the hydrogen and carbon are derived from the hydrocarbon.
1 mole of carbon dioxide has a mass out of which 12 g is the mass of carbon, therefore, 3.38 g of carbon will contain (3.38 × 12)/44 = 0.922 g of carbon.
Thus, since the hydrocarbon has a mass of 1 g, then the mass of hydrogen will be (1-0.922 g) = 0.078 g.
To get the empirical formula we divide the mass of each element by the atomic mass to get the number of moles.
Carbon= 0.922/12 = 0.0768 moles
Hydrogen = 0.078/1 = 0.078 moles
Then we get the ratio of the moles of carbon : hydrogen
= 0.0768 : 0.078
= 1 : 1.016
≈ 1: 1
Therefore the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon will be CH
Answer:
A catalytic converter is a device used to reduce the emissions from an internal combustion engine (used in most modern day automobiles and vehicles). Not enough oxygen is available to oxidize the carbon fuel in these engines completely into carbon dioxide and water; thus toxic by-products are produced. Catalytic converters are used in exhaust systems to provide a site for the oxidation and reduction of toxic by-products (like nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbons) of fuel into less hazardous substances such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and nitrogen gas.
