is a reactive organic liquid used in the manufacture of plastics, coatings, and adhesives. An unlabeled container is thought to contain this acid. A 0.2033-g sample is combusted in an apparatus such as that shown in Figure 3.14. The gain in mass of the H2O absorber is 0.102 g, whereas that of the CO2 absorber is 0.374 g. Is this analysis consistent with the contents of the container being propenoic acid?
