CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN HOW TO GET X AND Y?
First find out the volume of CO2 which is formed by the combustion....
volume of CO2 = 170-110 = 60 cm3
X = volume of CO2 / Volume of Alcohol
X = 60 / 20 = 3
Now find volume of water
Volume of Water = 250 - 170 = 80 cm3
Y / 2 = Volume of H2O / Volume of Alcohol
Y / 2 = 80 / 20 = 4
So Y = 8
