Answer:

For calculating the mass of CO2 we need to know the mass of carbon and oxygen and we know the mass of carbon is 12 amu ( atomic mass unit) and the mass of oxygen is 16amu and now

The mass of CO2 = 1×the mass of carbon+ 2×the mass of oxygen

=12+2×16

=12+32

=44amu

We have two oxygen so we multiplying by 2 in mass of oxygen.
