An organic compound gave 0.4655 g of CO(...

An organic compound gave 0.4655 g of `CO_(2)` on complete combustion. If the mass of the compound taken was 0.2115g, what is the percentage of C in it?

A

0.133

B

0.2667

C

0.6003

D

0.288

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Mass of `CO_(2)` formed=0.4655g
Mass of organic compound taken=0.2115g
% of `C=(12)/(44)xx("maff of "CO_(2))/("Mass of compound")xx100`
`=(12)/(44)xx(0.4655)/(0.2115)xx100=60.03%`
