Please correct me if I'm wrong but I think the answer is b or c
also sorry if i do get it wrong
First, we have to get how many grams of C & H & O in the compound:
- the mass of C on CO2 = mass of CO2*molar mass of C /molar mass of CO2
= 0.5213 * 12 / 44 = 0.142 g
- the mass of H atom on H2O = mass of H2O*molar mass of H / molar mass of H2O
=0.2835 * 2 / 18 = 0.0315 g
- the mass of O = the total mass - the mass of C atom - the mass of H atom
= 0.3 - 0.142 - 0.0315 = 0.1265 g
Convert the mass to mole by divided by molar mass
C(0.142/12) H(0.0315/2) O(0.1265/16)
C(0.0118) H(0.01575) O(0.0079) by dividing by the smallest value 0.0079
C1.504 H3.99 O1 by rounding to the nearst fraction
C3/2 H4/1 )1/1 multiply by 2
∴ the emprical formula C3H8O2
Answer:
2.68 cm^3
Explanation:
Density= Mass/Volume
so...
8.96 g/cm^3 = 24.01 g/ V
and then u solve so it would be 2.68 cm ^3
