oxygen at NTP required for its burning. Find the empirical formula of the compound
(0.8 g, 2.24 liters, CH4)
12. 0.21 g of an organic compound containing C,H,O and N gave upon combustion 0.462 g of CO2 and
0.1215 g of H2O. The ammonia produced on distillation of 0.104 g of this compound with NaOH
required 15 mL of n/20 H2SO4 for neutralization. Find the empirical formula of the compound
(C7H9NO2)
13. An organic compound qualitative analysis was found to contain C,H,N and O.1.0 g of it on oxidation
with CuO and oxygen gave 1.239 g of CO2 and 0.1269 g of H2O g of the sample was digested withg
