Consider the Decomposition of C₅H₆O₃ as Follows

question 28

Short Answer

Consider the decomposition of C₅H₆O₃ as follows:
When a 5.63-g sample of pure C₅H₆O₃ was sealed into an otherwise empty 2.50-L flask and heated to 200°C, the pressure gradually rose to 1.63 atm and remained at that value. Calculate the fraction of C₅H₆O₃ (by moles) that decomposed.
