Explanation:
it is given that,
C + O2 ---> CO2
in carbon dioxide, the ratio of mass of carbon to oxygen is 3 : 8.
Let x grams be the mass of the oxygen that would be required to react completely with 6 grams of carbon. According to the law of constant proportion,
(6/x) = (3/8)
=> x = 16 g
Therefore, 16g of oxygen is required to completely react with 6 gram of carbon.
