- A chemist invents a new combustion analysis instrument that uses less O2(g) which saves money on each analysis. The improvement is that instead of CO2(g) being formed and trapped, CO(g) is formed and trapped. H2O (g) is also formed and trapped when substances that contain hydrogen are analyzed.(a) The chemist places 2.184 g of an unknown compound of carbon and hydrogen in the new analyzer. 4.627 g of CO (g) and 1.795 g of H2O (g) are produced. Find the empirical formula for the compound.(Molar masses (g/mol): CO = 28.0104, H2O = 18.015) (b) Despite the best efforts of the chemist, the molar mass of the compound cannot be determined (using this method).
