The formula of density is mass / volume
This means that
- high mass, low volume = high density
- high mass, high volume = so-so
- low mass, high volume = low density
From the graph shown,
D has the lowest density because it has low mass yet high volume.
Answer:
2.8248 g
Explanation:
First, consider the balanced chemical equation:
Then we calculate the number of moles in 4.11 g of citric acid:
n(citric acid)=
According to the balanced reaction, one mole of citric acid produces 3 moles of carbon dioxide. That's 3 times the number f moles of citric acid. So we will do the same with the available number of moles of citric acid.
so n(carbon dioxide) = 0.0214 mol*3=0.0642 mol
mass(carbon dioxide)= mass*molar mass=0.0642 mol* 44g/mol
= 2.8248 g
In accordance with Dalton's Law of multiple proportions

Solution
the amount of air present ⇒ as an excess or limiting reactant
- air(O₂) as a limiting reactant(product=14 g)
C+0.5O₂⇒CO
6 + 8 = 14 g
mol O₂=8 g : 32 g/mol=0.25
mol C = 6 g : 12 g/mol = 0.5(2 x mol O₂)
mol CO= 2 x mol O₂ = 0.5 mol = 0.5 x 28 g/mol = 14 g
- air(O₂) as an excess reactant(product=22 g) an C as a limiting reactant
C+O₂⇒CO₂
6 + 16 = 22 g
mol C = 6 g : 12 g/mol = 0.5
mol O₂ = 16 g : 32 g/mol=0.5
mol CO₂ = 22 g : 44 g/mol = 0.5
if the mass firs element (C) constant, then the mass of the second element(O) in the two compounds will have a ratio as a simple integer.
CO = 6 : 8
CO₂ = 6 : 16
the ratio O = 8 : 16 = 1 : 2
In accordance with Dalton's Law of multiple proportions
