A compound containing only carbon, hydrogen, & oxygen is analyzed using combustion analysis. When 0.501g of the compound is burned, 0.711g of carbon dioxide and 0.436g of water are collected. D. Determine the moles of hydrogen present in the water. This will be the same number of moles of hydrogen in the original compound. E. Calculate the mass of oxygen in the Irgun compound. You will need to subtract the mass of the carbon that ended up in the carbon dioxide and the mass of the hydrogen that ended up in the water from the mass of the original compound. F. Determine the number of moles of oxygen in the original compound.
