Methanal, HCHO, and glucose, C6H12O6, have the same empirical formula, CH2O. Each is burnt completely in excess oxygen to carbon dioxide and water. Atomic masses in g mol−1: H 1, C 12, O 16.
Statement I: Burning 1mol of methanal and 1mol of glucose gives the same number of moles of carbon dioxide.
Statement II: Burning 3.0g of methanal and 3.0g of glucose gives the same mass of carbon dioxide, 4.4g each.
