0.01 mole of an organic compound (X) containing 10\% hydrogen, on complete combustion produced 0.9 g H2O. Molar mass of (X) is g mol-1.
Answer
100
Solution
0.9 g H2O = 0.05 mol ⇒ H = 0.1 mol = 0.1 g (in 0.01 mol of X)
This is 10\% of the sample ⇒ mass of 0.01 mol X = 1 g
M= 10.01=100 g/mol
Answer: 100
