Answer:

8.467 grams of oxygen

Explanation:

The law governing this problem is "The Law of Constant Composition "

As per this law, all compounds irrespective of their origin and source have the same composition and properties  in their purest form

It is a simple proportion and ratio related problem.

1.50 grams of carbon require 2.0 grams of oxygen

1.0 grams of carbon will require oxygen

= \frac{2}{1.5}

6.35 grams of carbon will require oxygen

\frac{2}{1.5}*6.35\\= 8.4666\\= 8.467
