Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionCompound X contains only the elements C, H, O, and S. A 5.00 g sample undergoes complete combustion to give 4.83 g of CO2, 1.48 g of H2O, and a certain amount of SO2 that is further oxidized to SO3 and dissolved in water to form sulfuric acid, H2SO4. On titration of the H2SO4, 109.8 mL of 1.00 M NaOH is needed for complete reaction. (Both H atoms in sulfuric acid are acidic and react with NaOH.) (a) What is the empirical formula of X?
