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
