To answer your question I will use dimensional analysis, which is used by cancelling out the units. I will also use the balanced equation provided as a conversion factor.

A) First start out with the 0.300 mol of C6H12O6...
0.300 mol C6H12O6 * (2 mol CO2 / 1 mol C6H12O6) = 0.600 mol CO2

*The significant figures (sig figs) at still three, the 2 is a conversion counting number and does not count*

B) First change 2.00 g of C2H5OH to moles of C2H5OH...
The molecular mass of C2H5OH is...
2(12.01 g/mol) + 5(1.008 g/mol) + 16.00 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol = 46.07 g/mol
This can be used as a conversion factor to change grams to moles. 
2.00 g C2H5OH * (1 mol C2H5OH / 46.07 g C2H5OH) = 0.0434 mol C2H5OH

Second, you can change the moles of C2H5OH to moles of C6H12O6..
0.0434 mol C2H5OH * (1 mol C6H12O6 / 2 mol C6H12O6) = 0.0217 mol C6H12O6

Third, change moles of C6H12O6 to grams...
MM = 6(12.01 g/mol) + 12(1.008 g/mol) + 6(16.00 g/mol) = 180.16 g/mol
0.0217 mol C6H12O6 * (180.16 g C6H12O6 / 1 mol C6H12O6) = 3.91 g C6H12O6

C) Now I am going to put it all into one long dimensional analysis problem.
MM of CO2 = 44.01 g/mol
MM of C2H5OH = 46.07 g/mol

2.00 g C2H5OH * (1 mol C2H5OH / 46.07 g C2H5OH) * (2 mol CO2 / 2 mol C2H5OH) * (44.01 g CO2 / 1 mol CO2) = 1.91 g CO2

I hope this helped and I am sorry that I talked to much, I just didn't want to miss anything!

Which statements about moon phases In a lunar month are true?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

1. The same pattern of phases repeats monthly

2. Waxing moon phases are visible between the new and full moon

6. A full moon appears toward the middle of a lunar month

Explanation:

Moon has eight phases which is used by the ancient people for the identification of date of the month. Phases of moon tells us about the starting, middle and end of the month. At the starting of the month, waxing crescent appears while at the middle of the month, the moon gains its full shape. Phases which occurs between new and full moon is known as waxing.

The electron in a hydrogen atom can undergo a transition from n = 4 to n = 3, emitting a photon with energy 1.06 × 10 –19J. Use
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Wavelength (λ) = 1.875 × 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

Given:

Energy (e) =  1.06 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

Find:

Wavelength (λ) = ?

Computation:

e = hc / λ

λ = hc / e

where c = 3 × 10⁸

Planck's constant (h) = 6.625 × 10⁻³⁴

So,

Wavelength (λ) = (6.625 × 10⁻³⁴)(3 × 10⁸) / (1.06 × 10⁻¹⁹)

1. Wavelength (λ) = 1.875 × 10⁻⁶ m

2. Given n = 4 to n = 3 both are integer not fraction so, electron is quantize
