Combustion analysis of toluene, a common organic solvent, gives 5.86 mg of CO2 and 1.37 mg of H2O. If the compound contains only carbon and hydrogen, what is its empirical formula? Since toluene contains only C and H (we are told in the problem) we have everything we need. Ex. A sample of 0.600 mol of a metal M reacts completely with excess fluorine to form 46.8 g of MF2. (a) How many moles of F are in the sample of MF2 that forms? M + F2 (b) How many grams of M are in this sample of MF2?
