Question

If you are given 75 g of O2,, how many grams of CO2 are made? Show your work :)

Answer 1

Answer:  52.4l at STP or about 102.96 grams of CO2

Explanation:

One mole of oxygen gas gives like one carbon dioxide gas

C + O2 ----> CO2

Number of moles of 75g of O2 is= 75/32 = 2.34 moles

So given that we can make 2.34 moles of Oxygen we can make one mole of CO2 Gas which is 52.4liters at STP

1 mole  of CO2 = 22.4 l

2.34 moles of CO2 = 52.4l
