Please my main problem is the (c)  with my understanding, i thought the (c) is the same thing as the volumetric   analysis given.   do i need to calculate anything or am not getting it  because i thought the answer to (c) should be  X_i  = (n_i /n)  for each individual  X_(Co_2  )  =  8%  X_(H_2 O )  =  11%  X_(O_2  )  =  7%  X_(N_2   ) =  74%  Or it has how i will calculate for (c), the above is my own understanding  please put me through.

The given information tells the  volumetric analysis means in 100 L  volume of CO_2  = 8 L (say at STP).  These values will be the molar ratio.  Multiply by molar mass to get the mass  ratio.

What am asking is that what should be the answer for (c) ???
