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!

Calculate the speed of light in an unknown substance whose index of refraction is 1.65. Would you expect the light to bend towar
Anna71 [15]

(a) The speed of light in the unknown substance is determined 1.82 x 10⁸ m/s.

(b) The light will bend away from the normal since speed of light in air is not equal to speed of light in the substance.

<h3>What is the speed of light?</h3>

The speed of light passing from air into the substance is calculated as follows;

refractive index = speed of light in air / speed of light in the substance

speed of light in the substance = speed of light in air/refractive index

speed of light in the substance = (3 x 10⁸) / (1.65)

speed of light in the substance = 1.82 x 10⁸ m/s

Thus, the light will bend away from the normal since speed of light in air is not equal to speed of light in the substance.
