Answer:
In 100 grams of ascorbic acid we would have:
40.92 grams C
4.58 grams H
54.50 grams O
O = (1.0)*3 = 3
or, C3H4O3
Combustion analysis
When a compound containing carbon and hydrogen is subject
to combustion with oxygen in a special combustion apparatus
all the carbon is converted to CO2 and the hydrogen to H2O.
The amount of H:
Limiting Reactants
The reactant that is completely consumed in a
chemical reaction is called the limiting reactant
(or limiting reagent) because it determines (or
limits) the amount of product formed.
Theoretical yields
The quantity of product that is calculated to form
when all of the limiting reactant is consumed in a
reaction is called the theoretical yield.
The amount of product actually obtained is called
the actual yield.
Actual yield < Theoretical yield
for the following reasons:
for some reason not all the reactants may react
there maybe some significant side reactions
physical recovery of 100% of the sample may be
impossible (like getting all the peanut butter out of the
jar)
