Answer:
Explanation:
C + O2 → CO2
Mole of C = 24 g/(12 g/mole)
Mole of C = 2 mole
Mole of molecular O2 = 74 g/(32 g/mole)
Mole of molecular O2 = 2.3125 mole
Since mole of C < mole of O2, then C being the limiting reagent.
From the reaction, it shows that mole ratio between C and O2 = 1 : 1.
So, 2 moles of C will stoichiometrically react with 2 moles of O2 to generate 2 moles of CO2.
Avogadro's law states that :"equal volumes of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules i.e. 6.02 x 10^23 molecules/mole.
Therefore, 2 moles of CO2 contain 2 moles x 6.02 x 10^23 molecules/mole = 1.204 x 10^24 molecules of CO2 is formed.
