Answer:
In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O
Explanation:
Let's make some rules of three, to solve this problem:
1 mol of ethanol has 2 moles of C, 6 moles of H, and 1 mol of oxygen
Therefore, 0.75 moles of ethanol must have 0.75 mol of oyxgen
Let's convert the moles to mass → 0.75 mol . 16 g/ 1 mol = 12 g
1 mol of formic acid has 2 moles of H, 1 mol of C and 2 mol of oxygen
0.60 moles of formic acid must have (0.6 .2) / 1 = 1.2 mol of O
If we convert the amount to mass → 1.2 mol . 16 g/ 1mol = 19.2 g
1 mol of water has 1 mol of oyxgen
Therefore, we have 1 mol of oxygen with a mass of 16 g.
In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O
