2. In an experiment to determine the empirical formula of an oxide of copper , the combustion tube
with the porcelain dish are weighed. Oxide of copper is added into the porcelain dish and the tube
is weighed again. The oxide of copper is heated strongly. After the set of apparatus cools down to
room temperature the combustion tube with its content is weighed again.

The following data is obtained.


Mass of combustion tube + porcelain dish = 19.60 g
Mass of combustion tube + porcelain dish + oxide of copper = 25.68 g
Mass of combustion tube +porcelain dish + copper = 24.46 g
