Answer 2

Answer:

22 grams of CO₂ will be produced

Explanation:

The reaction is:

C + O₂ ⇒ CO₂

Mass of Carbon given = 24 g

Atomic Mass of C = 12 units

∴ Moles of C = $\frac{24}{12}$ = 2 moles

Mass of Oxygen given = 16 g

Atomic Mass of O₂ = 16 × 2 = 32 units

∴ Moles of O₂ = $\frac{16}{32}$ = 0.5 moles

Now, Stoichiometry amount of C = $\frac{2}{1}$ = 2

Stoichiometry amount of O₂ = $\frac{0.5}{1}$ = 0.5

Since 0.5 < 2, O₂ is the limiting reactant

∴ $\frac{1}{1}$ × 0.5 = 0.5 moles of CO₂ is produced

Atomic Mass of CO₂ = 12 + (16 × 2)

                                  = 12 + 32

                                  = 44 units

0.5 moles = $\frac{\text{Mass of }CO_{2} }{44}$

Mass of CO₂ = 0.5 × 44

Mass of CO₂ = 22 grams
