- A 0509-g sample of an unknown organic compound containing C, H, and O was burned in air to give 1.316 g of CO2 and 0.269 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for this compound? (a) CHO (b) C2H2O (c) C4H4O (d) CHO4arrow_forwardThe active ingredient in Pepto-Bismo® (an over- the-counter remedy for an upset stomach) is bismuth sub-salicylate, C7H5BiO4. Analysis of a 1.7500-g sample of Pepto-Bismol yields 346 mg of bismuth. What percent by mass is bismuth subsalicylate in the sample? (Assume that there are no other bismuth-containing compounds in Pepto-Bismol.)arrow_forwardYou take 1.00 g of an aspirin tablet (a compound consisting solely of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), burn it in air, and collect 2.20 g CO2 and 0.400 g H2O. You know that the molar mass of aspirin is between 170 and 190 g/mol. Reacting 1 mole of salicylic acid with I mole of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) gives you 1 mole of aspirin and 1 mole of acetic acid (C2H4O2). Use this information to determine the molecular formula of salicylic acid.arrow_forward
- Boron forms an extensive series of compounds with hydrogen, all with the general formula BxHy. To analyze one of these compounds, you burn it in air and isolate the boron in the form of B2O3 and the hydrogen in the form of water. You find that 0.1482 g BxHy gives 0.4221 g B2O3 when burned in excess O2. Determine the empirical I formula of BxHy.arrow_forwardHydrogen cyanide is produced industrially from the reaction of gaseous ammonia, oxygen, and methane: 2NH3(g)+3O2(g)+2CH4(g)2HCN(g)+6H2O(g) If 5.00 103 kg each of NH3, O2, and CH4 are reacted, what mass of HCN and of H2O will be produced, assuming 100% yield?arrow_forward4.108 Elemental analysis is sometimes carried out by combustion of the sample. For a hydrocarbon, the only products formed are CO2 and H2O. If a 1.36-g sample of an unknown hydrocarbon is burned and 2.21 g of H2O is produced along with 4.07 g of CO2, what is the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon?arrow_forward
- Phenol is a compound of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen used commonly as a disinfectant. Combustion of a 175-mg sample of phenol yielded 491 mg CO2 and 100. mg H2O.
