Answer:

8.3lb of fat were removed

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to convert the liters of fat removed to mL. Using the mL and density we can find the grams. To convert grams to pounds we must use (1lb = 453.592g):

mL fat:

4.0L * (1000mL / 1L) = 4000mL

g fat:

4000mL * (0.94g / mL) = 3760g of fat

lb fat:

3760g of fat * (1lb / 453.592g) =

<h3>8.3lb of fat were removed</h3>

Carbon disulfide burns with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide in the following manner: CS2 + 3O2 → CO2 + 2SO2 If

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Given:
CS2 + 3O2 → CO2 + 2SO2
114 grams of CS2 are burned in an excess of O2

moles CS2 = 114 g/76.143 g/mol → 114g * mol/76.143 g = 1.497 mol

the ratio between CS2 and SO2 is 1 : 2 

moles SO2 formed = 1.497 x 2 = 2.994 moles → 2nd option
