A chemist is attempting to synthesize a Queen Bee sex pheromone.
A promising compound was isolated . A 1.000 g sample of the
compound that contains only C, H, and O was burned. If 2.331 g of
CO2 and 0.739 g of H2O were collected, what is the empirical
formula of the possible pheromone?
The unbalanced reaction is CxHyOz + O2 ——-> CO2 + H2O
