Answer:
C+O₂--> CO₂
for 12g of C you need 2 x 16=32g Oxygen
So for 1kg=1000g you need 1000 x 32/12=2666g of oxygen
In moles 2666/32=83.3moles
As there is approximately 1 molle of oxygen for 5 moles of air you need 83.3 x 5=417 moles of air
and volume, V=nRT/P ,
n=417
R=8.314
T=273
p=101325Pa
V= 417 x 8.314 x 273/101325=9.340m³=9340 L of air.
