Answer: C33H53O3
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) Convert grams of CO2 to grams of C
Convert grams of H2O to grams of H
2.) Subtract the total amount of grams ( 0.1000g) by the grams of C and grams of H to find grams of O.
3.) Convert grams of each substance to moles of each substance.
4.) Divide the moles of each substance by the smallest amount of moles to find the subscripts of each element. Since the answer for hydrogen is not close to a whole number, you must multiply each of the answers by the smallest whole number that would result the answer to be closer to a whole number.
5.) The final answer is C33H53O3
