The answer is B, 54 g. Reactants and products have the same mass, so if the product is 72 g of carbon dioxide, and all we know is there is 18 g of carbon, then we can find the difference of 72 and 18 by subtracting 18 from 72 which is 54 g.

From the given balanced chemical reaction,
                                   C + O2 -> CO2
the mass ratio of the carbon and oxygen that is needed for the reaction is 12:32. Simplifying the ratio gives 3 unit mass C is to 8 unit mass O2. Given 18 g of carbon,
           18 g x (32 g oxygen / 12 g carbon) = 48 grams. 
For the given product, the ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide is 32: 44.
                      72 g CO2 x (32 g O2 / 44 g CO2) = 52.36 grams

Which kind of organism does not generally require oxygen or sunlight to live?
gregori [183]
Answer is A.

Archaea requires neither sunlight for photosynthesis as do plants, nor oxygen. Archaea absorbs CO2, N2, or H2S and gives off methane gas as a waste product the same way humans breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. An example is chemosynthetic bacteria by sea drifts. They use chemical energy to produce vital processes to live.
