On complete combustion, 0 . 492g of an organic compound gave 0 ....

On complete combustion, 0.492g0 . 492g of an organic compound gave 0.792g0 . 792g of CO2{CO}_{2}. The % of carbon in the organic compound is (Nearest integer)

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

4444 grams of CO2{CO}_{2} contain 1212 grams of carbon.

Hence, one gram of carbon dioxide contain 1244\dfrac{12}{44} gram of carbon.

0.7920 . 792 gram of carbon dioxide contain 1244×0.792\dfrac{12}{44} \times 0 . 792 gram of carbon

Percentage of carbon = Mass of carbonMass of organic compound×100\dfrac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{\text{Mass of organic compound}} \times 100

=1244×0.7920.492×100= \dfrac{12}{44} \times \dfrac{0 . 792}{0 . 492} \times 100

=43.90= 43 . 90 %

So, answer is 4444.
