Question

Transcribed Image Text:3.
The vapour pressure of water at 50.0°C is 92.50 torr. When 12.6 g of glycerol are dissolved in 494 g of
water, the vapour pressure is lowered to 92.04 torr.
(a) What is the molar mass of glycerol?
(b)
What is the molecular formula of glycerol (a compound containing C, H, and O) from the following
combustion analysis: when 2.00 g glycerol are combusted, 2.865 g CO₂ and 1.564 g H₂O are
recovered.
