Copper (II) oxide is mixed with organic compound during combustion analysis.The purpose is
Correct answer: A. to carry out complete combustion
- A. to carry out complete combustion
- B. to reduce the economy of the process
- C. to reduce the time for completion of the reaction
- D. all of the above
Explanation
Complete Combustion: Copper (II) oxide serves as an oxidizing agent. In combustion analysis, the organic compound is burned in the presence of excess oxygen provided by copper (II) oxide. This ensures complete combustion of the organic compound, converting all carbon to carbon dioxide and all hydrogen to water.

About Fundamental Concepts of Chemistry
Mole calculations connect mass, number of particles and Avogadro's number, while balanced equations provide the mole ratios used in stoichiometry. Questions cover limiting and excess reactants, theoretical yield and percentage yield, including identifying which reactant is consumed first and comparing the actual product with the maximum possible product.
