AI Generated Solution

To determine the molecular formula of the volatile compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate moles of Carbon from CO2 1. **Find the moles of CO2 produced:** - Molar mass of CO2 = 12.01 (C) + 2 × 16.00 (O) = 44.01 g/mol - Moles of CO2 = mass of CO2 / molar mass of CO2 - Moles of CO2 = 0.195 g / 44.01 g/mol = 0.00443 mol ...
