When carbon-containing compounds are burned in a limited amount of air, some CO(g) as well as CO₂(g) is produced. A gaseous product mixture is 35.0 mass % CO and 65.0 mass % CO₂. What is the mass % of C in the mixture?

Respuesta :

Here, we are going to calculate the mass % of C in the mixture.

What is a Mixture?

A mixture is composed of one or more pure substances in varying composition. There are two types of mixtures: heterogeneous and homogeneous. Heterogeneous mixtures have visually distinguishable components, while homogeneous mixtures appear uniform throughout.

Given that,

The mass % of CO =35.0% =35.0 g in 100 g mixture

The mass % of CO2 = 65% =65 g in 100 g mixture

Therefore,

The mass of C from CO = 15.007 g C

Similarly,

The mass of C from CO2 = 17.738 g C

Thus, the total mass of C = 15.007 g+17.738 g =32.745 g

Therefore,

The mass % of C= 32.745% =32.7%

Thus, the mass % of C in the mixture is 32.7%
