JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 1. Some basic concept of chemistry

An organic compound gives \(0.220 g\) of \(CO _2\) and \(0.126 g\) of \(H _2 O\) on complete combustion. If the \(\%\) of carbon is 24 then the \(\%\) hydrogen is \(......\times 10^{-1} \cdot(\) Nearest integer \()\)

  1. A \(51\)
  2. B \(52\)
  3. C \(56\)
  4. D \(53\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(56\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Moles of \(CO _2=\frac{0.22}{44}=\frac{1}{200}\) \(\therefore\) Moles of carbon \(=\left(\text { Moles of } CO _2\right) \times 1\) \(=\frac{1}{200}\) \(\therefore\) wt. of \(C =\frac{1}{200} \times 12=0.06\) \(\text { \% of } C =\frac{0.06}{ W } \times 100=24\)…
