calculate the amount of carbon dioxide that could be produced when ?1 mole of carbon is burnt in air
Answers
Explanation:
(i) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in air.
C+O
2
→CO
2
1 mole of C produces 1 mole of CO
2
which corresponds to 44 g of CO
2
.
(ii) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in 16 g of dioxygen.
16 g of dioxygen corresponds to
32
16
=0.5 moles.
Here, dioxygen is the limiting reagent.
It will produce 0.5 moles of CO
2
which corresponds to 0.5×44=22 g of CO
2
.
(iii) 2 moles of carbon are burnt in 16 g of dioxygen.
16 g of dioxygen corresponds to
32
16
=0.5 moles.
Here, dioxygen is the limiting reagent.
It will produce 0.5 moles of CO
2
which corresponds to 0.5×44=22 g of CO
2
.
Answer:
So that, you can calculate the molar mass of the compound. We can conclude from the equation when 1 mole of carbon burnt in 1 mole of dioxygen (molecular mass = 32), gives rise to 1 mole of carbon dioxide (molecular mass=44). Now according to the question only 16g of dioxygen is available for the reaction. = 0.5 moles.
