Answer:
= 97.44 Liters at S.T.P
Explanation:
The reaction between Iron (iii) oxide and Carbon monoxide is given by the equation;
Fe2O3(s)+ 3CO(g) → 3CO2(g) + 2Fe(s)
From the reaction when the reactants react, 2 moles of Fe and 3 moles of CO2 are produced.
Therefore; Mole ratio of Iron : Carbon dioxide is 2:3
Thus; Moles of Carbon dioxide = (2.9/2)×3
= 4.35 moles
But; 1 mole of CO2 at s.t.p occupies 22.4 liters
Therefore;
Mass of CO2 = 22.4 × 4.35 Moles
= 97.44 L
