Question

How many moles of carbon dioxide, co2, are produced if 5.87 moles of glucose, c6h12o6, react?

Answer 1

The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₃ --> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
stoichiometry of glucose to CO₂ is 1:6
when 1 mol of glucose reacts - 6 mol of CO₂ are formed 
therefore when 5.87 mol of glucose reacts - 6 x 5.87 mol = 35.22 mol
therefore 35.2 mol of CO₂ is formed
