0.2475 gm of an organic substance gave on combustion 0.495 gm of `CO_2` and `0.2025gm` of `H_2O`. Calculate the percentange of carbon and hydrogen in it.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`C = 54.54 %; H = 9.09 %`
`%` of `C=12/44xx("Mass of "CO_(2))/("Mass of compound")xx100=12/44xx0.495/0.2475xx100=54.54%`
`%` of `H=2/18xx("Mass of "H_(2)O)/("Mass of compound")xx100=2/18xx0.2025/0.2475xx100=9.09 %`
