The complete combustion of 0 . 492g of an organic compound...

The complete combustion of 0.492g0 . 492g of an organic compound containing 'CC', 'HH' and 'OO' gives 0.793g0 . 793g of CO2{CO}_{2} and 0.442g0 . 442g of H2O{H}_{2}O. The percentage of oxygen composition in the organic compound is____.(nearest integer)

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Organic compound +O2⟶CO2(g)+H2O+ {O}_{2} ⟶ {CO}_{2}\left(g\right) + {H}_{2}O 0.7930 . 793 gram 0.4420 . 442 gram

Weight of the organic compound=0.4920 . 492 gram

Number of moles of CO2{CO}_{2}=Number of moles of CC=0.79344Weightofcarbon=[0.79344]12=0.216g= \dfrac{0 . 793}{44}Weightofcarbon = \left[\dfrac{0 . 793}{44}\right]12 = 0 . 216g

Weightofhydrogen = \left[\dfrac{0 . 442}{18}\right]2 = 0 . 0491g</p><p>Weightofoxygen=[0.492−0.216−0.0491]=0.2269gg</p><p>Weightofoxygen = \left[0 . 492 - 0 . 216 - 0 . 0491\right] = 0 . 2269g

% of O=0.22490.492×100=46.11≈46O = \dfrac{0 . 2249}{0 . 492} \times 100 = 46 . 11 \approx 46
