The elements that are present in the compound
Answer to Problem 6R
The elements present in this compound are carbon (C), Hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). For each unit of carbon and oxygen atom, there are 2 units of hydrogen atoms.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given compound is
Calculation:
Molecules which are formed by the atoms with more than one element through a
The label on the box shows
Therefore, the elements present in this compound are carbon (C), Hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O).
The compound shows the presence of 2 carbon atoms, 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms. Therefore, for each carbon and oxygen atom, there are 2 hydrogen atoms.
Conclusion:
Hence, the elements present in this compound are carbon (C), Hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). For each unit of carbon and oxygen atom, there are 2 units of hydrogen atoms.
