Chapter 1, Problem 37E
Several samples of carbon dioxide are obtained and decomposed into carbon and oxygen. The masses of the carbon and oxygen are then weighed, and the results are tabulated as shown here. One of these results does not follow the law of constant composition and is therefore wrong. Which one?
a. 12 grams of carbon and 32 grams of oxygen
b. 4.0 grams of carbon and 16 grams of oxygen
c. 1.5 grams of carbon and 4.0 grams of oxygen
d. 22.3 grams of carbon and 59.4 grams of oxygen

- The organic compound MTBE (methyltertiarybutylether) is used as a fuel additive that allows gasoline to burn more cleanly thus leading to a reduction in pollution. Recently, however, MTBE has been found in the drinking water of a number of communities. As a result several states are phasing out the use of MTBE as a fuel additive. A combustion experiment using 10.00 g of MTBE was found to produce 24.97g of CO2 and 12.26 g of H2O. (a) What is the empirical formula of MTBE assuming it contains C, H, and O only?
