A volcanic <em>eruption</em> occurs when the <em>pressure </em> in a magma <em>chamber</em> becomes so great it is released like a valve. Magma is released through the volcano's <em>cone</em> in an eruption of <em>lava</em> rocks (bombs) and ash. A volcanic <em>cone</em> develops over centuries as flowing <em>lava</em> from the active volcano <em>cools </em>to form layers of rock.

Given :
Mass of oxygen containing carbon monoxide (CO) is 2.666 gram .
To Find :
How many grams of carbon (C) would be present in carbon monoxide (CO) that contains 2.666 grams of oxygen (O) .
Solution :
By law of constant composition , a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio (by mass) and does not depend on its source and method of preparation.
So , volume of solution does not matter .
Moles of oxygen , .
Now , molecule of CO contains 1 mole of C .
So , moles of C is also 0.167 mole .
Mass of carbon , .
Therefore , mass of carbon is 2 grams .
Hence , this is the required solution .
