The molecular formula of calcium oxide - CaO
The molar mass of CaO - 40 + 16 = 56 g/mol 
Which means that 1 mol weighs 56 g
Therefore 56 g of CaO is - 1 mol
Then 89.23 g is equivalent to - 1/56 x 89.23 = 1.6 mol of CaO

Answer : 1.593 moles are equal to 89.23 g of calcium oxide.

Solution : Given,

Mass of calcium oxide = 89.23 g

Molar mass of calcium oxide = 56 g/mole

Formula used :

\text{Moles of }CaO=\frac{\text{Mass of }CaO}}{\text{Molar mass of }CaO}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the moles of calcium oxide.

\text{Moles of }CaO=\frac{89.23g}{56g/mole}=1.593moles

Therefore, 1.593 moles are equal to 89.23 g of calcium oxide.

If 42 grams of carbon and 52 grams of oxygen are used, how many grams of CO2 will be produced (Hint: find the
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

71.5g

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

               C  +  O₂  →  CO₂

Mass of C = 42g

Mass of O₂  = 52g

Unknown:

Mass of CO₂ produced  = ?

Solution

Now to solve this problem, we have to find limiting reactant which is the one given in short supply in this reaction.

 The extent of the reaction is controlled by this reactant.

Find the number of moles of the given species;

 Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

      Number of moles of C  = \frac{42}{12}   = 3.5mol

     Number of moles of O₂   = \frac{52}{32}   = 1.63mol

Now;

   From the balanced reaction equation;

           1 mole of C reacted with 1 mole of O₂

We see that C is in excess and O₂ is the limiting reactant.

            1 mole of O₂ will produce 1 mole of CO₂

 So;      1.63mole of O₂ will produce 1.63 mole of CO₂

Mass of CO₂ = number of moles x molar mass

       Molar mass of CO₂ = 44g/mol

Mass of CO₂ = 1.63 x 44 = 71.5g

Burning one gallon of gasoline releases 20 pounds of CO2 into the air. Harry’s compact car can travel 25 miles on one gallon of
son4ous [18]
There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's, the answer can be easily deduced.
Amount of gasoline required by Harry's car to travel 25 miles = 1 gallon
Then
amount of gasoline required
by Harry's car to travel 15000 miles = 15000/25
                                                         = 600 gallons
So 
Amount of CO2 released by burning 1 gallon of gasoline = 20 pounds
Then
Amount of CO2 released
by burning 600 gallon of gasoline = 600 * 20
                                                      = 12000 pounds
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the amount of CO2 that will be added by Harry's car to the atmosphere is 12000 pounds.
