Each mole of carbon gives 44⋅g of carbon dioxide gas upon oxidation.
Explanation:
C(s)+O2(g)→CO2(g).
The 1:1 stoichiometry is clear: moles of carbon, and dioxygen gas are equivalent to the moles of carbon dioxide gas generated.
We start with 28.2⋅g12.01⋅g⋅mol=2.35⋅mol C, and thus 2.35⋅mol×44.01⋅g⋅mol−1 CO2(g) are evolved.
Suppose that less than 100⋅g of gas were collected in the experiment. Barring error on the part of the experimenter, what would be a reasonable explanation?
