Answer:
54 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of carbon = 18 g
Mass of CO₂ = 72 g
Mass of oxygen needed = ?
Solution:
Chemical reaction:
C + O₂ → CO₂
according to law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
This law was given by French chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
In given photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.
In a similar way,
C + O₂ → CO₂
18 g + X = 72
X = 72 -18
X = 54 g
Thus, 54 g of O₂ are required.

Oh Okay
I hope u have a better rest of ur day
Answer:
This is a coal combustion process and we will assume
Inlet coal amount = 100kg
It means that there are
15kg of H2O, 2kg of Sulphur and 83kg of Carbon
Now to find the mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust?
Molar mass of S = 32kg/kmol
Initial moles n of S = 2/32 = 0.0625kmols
Reaction: S + O₂ = SO₂
That is 1 mole of S reacts with 1 mole of O₂ to give 1 mole of SO₂
Then, it means for 0.0625 kmoles of S, we will have 0.0625 kmole of SO2 coming out of the exhaust
The mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust=0.0625kmols
