12.32. An organic compound contains 69% carbon and 4.8% hydrogen, the remainder being oxygen. Calculate the masses of carbon dioxide and water produced when 0.20 g of this compound is subjected to complete combustion.
12.32. An organic compound contains 69% carbon and 4.8% hydrogen, the remainder being oxygen. Calculate the masses of carbon dioxide and water produced when 0.20 g of this compound is subjected to complete combustion.
Step 1: Calculation of mass of CO2 produced
Mass of compound = 0.20 g
% of carbon = 69%
i.e. 12/44 x = Mass of Carbondioxide formed / Mass of Compound = 69/100
Therefore, mass of CO2formed = (69 x 44 x 0.20) / (12 x 100) = 0.506 g
Step 2: Calculation of mass of H2O produced
Mass of compound = 0.20 g
