Answer:
mass of CO₂ = 5.402 g
Explanation:
At STP, 1 mole of any gas takes up 22.4L of volume
Thus, 1 mole = 22.4 L
1 L = 1 mole ÷ 22.4
Therefore, 2.75 L = 2.75 mole ÷ 22.4 = 0.123 moles
Molecular weight of CO₂ = 44 g/mole
mass of CO₂ = molecular weight * number of moles = 44 g/mole * 0.123 moles
mass of CO₂ = 5.402 g
The reaction of nitric acid and sulfuric acid is highly exothermic so it releases a lot of heat. If the temperature is not controlled, the reaction could go into thermal runaway, which is potentially extremely hazardous.
Methane composes most of the natural gas.
