Check all that apply. 2Nhe mass ratio of oxygen to carbon in co is twice the mass ratio oforygen tocarbona co, 2 The mass ratio of oxygen to carbon in CO2 is 2667 for every sample of Coa 2 The mass ratio of oxygen to carbon in CO is 133 for every sample of Co ratio o o inthe other compound e For two compounds otc and o the mass raso e to o in one oompound is a multole of the mass of C of Hints My Answers

Explanation / Answer

The correct answers are B.C,D

B is correct, since Molar mass of CO2 = 44 gm/mol

Mass of O2 in CO2 = 32 gm/mol

Mass of C in CO2 = 12 gm/mol

Ratio of O to C = 32/12 = 2.667

C is correct, since Molar mass of CO = 28 gm/mol

Mass of O2 in CO = 16 gm/mol

Mass of C in CO2 = 12 gm/mol

Ratio of O to C = 16/12 = 1.333

D is correct since

Mass ratio of 2nd compound = 2 * Mass ratio of compound
