Re: as chem question on working out the formula of a hudrocarbon!I thought the exam was on Tuesday?(Original post by Katieh007)
even if you can only work out the volume of the reagents and co2
I would be able to take it from there!
Please my exam is tomarra!
Anyways, are you sure this is a new spec question? Can't recall coming across a similar question when doing the past papers. Try looking up the mark scheme for the exam you got this question from.
