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:
Nuclear fusion plays an important role in making elements that are heavier than helium.
Explanation:
Nucleosynthesis is the process by which new atomic nuclei are created from pre-existing nucleons (protons and neutrons) and nuclei. According to current theories, the first nuclei were formed a few minutes after the Big Bang, through nuclear reactions in a process called Big Bang nucleosynthesis.
In order to synthesize a new element, there must be a change in the number of protons. We should remember that elements are known by the number of their protons as it represents their atomic number.
Elements heavier than helium are formed by nuclear nucleosynthesis in which nuclear fusion plays a very crucial role as typified by the equations shown in the question.
