Question

Calculate the amount of carbon dioxide that could be produced when (i) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in air.(ii) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in 16 g of dioxygen.(iii) 2 moles of carbon are burnt in 16 g of dioxygen.

Answer 1

Answer:

1) co2 12+32=44

Explanation:

2)22 gram

3)88 gram

Answer 2

Answer:

The chemical equation for the reaction is: i) when 1 mole of carbon is burnt in 1 mole(32 g) of air(dioxygen) ,then according to chemical equation (1) 1mole(44 g) of carbon dioxide is produced. (iii) According to the question, only 16 g of dioxygen is available. It is a limiting reactant
