Detailed Solution

$% C = \frac{12}{44} \times \frac{M a s s o f C O_{2}}{M a s s o f O . C} \times 100$

$= \frac{12}{44} \times \frac{0.535}{.765} \times 100$

$= \frac{12}{44} \times 0.6993$

$= 19 %$

$% H = \frac{2}{18} \times \frac{M a s s o f H_{2} O}{M a s s o f O . C} \times 100$

$= \frac{2}{18} \times \frac{0.138}{0.765} \times 100$

$= 0 11 111 \times 0.18 \times 100$

$= 2 %$
