Answer:

Quantity of Carbon is 4.09 gm

Explanation:

Equation of carbon reacting with oxygen to give carbon dioxide is given by

C + O_{2} ⇒ CO_{2}

One mole of carbon reacts with one mole of Oxygen in this reaction to give One mole of Carbon dioxide.

So, 12 gm of carbon reacts with 32 gm of Oxygen in this reaction to give 44 gm of carbon dioxide.

15 gm of CO_{2} was formed in this reaction

Oxygen used in this reaction = \frac{15}{44}×32 = 10.91 gm ,

Thus Oxygen is in sufficient quantity in the reaction.

Now,

Carbon that must be used = \frac{15}{44}×12  = 4.09 gm.

Research shows that the combination of __________ and __________ can reduce the risk of death in a collision by up to 80%
r-ruslan [8.4K]
The combination of seatbelts and airbags can reduce the risk of death in a collision by up to 80%.

The seatbelts help to keep the person in one position and prevent impact with the vehicle as the vehicle comes to a sudden stop. Moreover, the airbag increases the time of collision to reduce the impact experienced by the person. An increased time of collision greatly reduces the damage that is done to the body.
