Answer the following questions about ascorbic acid (vitamin C).

A student combusts a sample of ascorbic acid, $\mathrm{C}_{x} \mathrm{H}_{y} \mathrm{O}_{x}$ , to determine its chemical composition. The only products of the reaction are 0.2400 mol of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ and 2.883 g of $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$ .

Calculate the number of moles of $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$ produced.

A (i) For the correct calculated value:

$2.883 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \times \frac{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}{18.02 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}=0.1600 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$
