A 0.5347 g sample of cinnamaldehyde, a compound that contains only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and has the fragrance of cinnamon was combusted in a flow of excess oxygen. The carbon dioxide collected had a mass of 1.6024 g and the water collected had a mass of 0.2916 g. When cinnamaldehyde was vaporized in a 254.00 mL flask at 100.0 °C and 1.044 bar, the vapour was found to have a mass of 1.1302 g. Given that 0.036410 moles of CO2 are produced, what mass of carbon (C), in grams, were present in the cinnamaldehyde sample?

**Question 23.b of 23**

A 0.5347 g sample of cinnamaldehyde, a compound that contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and has the fragrance of cinnamon, was combusted in a flow of excess oxygen. The carbon dioxide collected had a mass of 1.6024 g, and the water collected had a mass of 0.2916 g. When cinnamaldehyde was vaporized in a 254.00 mL flask at 100.0 °C and 1.044 bar, the vapor was found to have a mass of 1.1302 g.

Given that 0.036410 moles of CO₂ are produced, what mass of carbon (C), in grams, were present in the cinnamaldehyde sample?

**[Answer Input Section]**

9.0021 g
