Answer:
So there is83.6g CO2 produced
Explanation:
Burning carbon with air has the following equation
C + O2 → CO2
For 1 mol Carbon, we have 1 mol O2 and 1 mol CO2
Step 2: Calculating moles
mole C = 22.8g / 12g/mole
Mole C = 1.9 mole
1.9 mole C will completely react
Since for each mole C there is 1 mole O2 and 1 mole CO2
This means there will also react 1.9 mole of 02, to be formed 1.9 mole of CO2
mole CO2 = mass CO2 / Molar mass CO2
mass CO2 = 1.9 mole CO2 * 44g/mole =<u>83.6g CO2</u>
In this reaction 18.2 g of O2 remained unreacted
we can control this: 79g - 18.2 g = 60.8g
1.9 mole * 32g/mol = 60.8g
So there is83.6g CO2 produced
