1 g of an organic compound containing oxygen is heated with graphite and carbon monoxide formed is quantitatively converted to 0.1375 g `CO_(2)` on reaction with `I_(2)O_(5)` calculate the percentage of oxygen in the compound.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
5
`O%=(16)/(44) xx (W_(CO_(2)))/(W_(org)) xx 100 =(16)/(44) xx (0.1375)/(1g) xx 100=5`
