Commonly used for compounds containing principally Carbon and Hydrogen When they are completely combusted, C turns into CO2 and H turns into H2O From the masses of CO2 and H2O, we can calculate the number of moles of C and H in the original sample (empirical formulas). If a third element is present, then its mass can be determined by subtracting the measured masses of C and H from the original sample mass
