The formula of the saturated hydrocarbon in hydrocarbon-nitrogen
gas mixture was determined by burning a sample of the mixture with
30 % excess air. The combustion gases were analyzed and showed an
Orsat analysis of 8.95 % carbon dioxide, 0.99 % carbon monoxide,
1.99 % hydrogen gas, 6.46 % oxygen gas, and 81.61% nitrogen gas.
What is the formula of the hydrocarbon?
