Question

The ration of the mass percentages of 'C & H' and 'C & O' of a saturated acyclic organic compound 'X' are 4 : 1 and 3 : 4 respectively. Then, the moles of oxygen gas required for complete combustion of two moles of organic compound 'X' is_________.

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: .. Mass ratio of C : H is 4 : 1  12 : 3 & C : O is 3 : 4  12 : 16 mass mole mole ratio so C 1 H 3 O 1 Empirical formula  CH3O as compound is saturated acyclic so molecular formula is C2H6O2. ) g ( O H ) g ( CO ) g ( O 5 O H C 2 mole 2 mole 2 2 mole     so required moles of O2 is  5
