Answer:
mass of that can be removed from air=6.7gram
Explanation:
when you get this type of question first write their balance equation.
First write the balance chemical reaction:
given mass of diiodine pentaoxide=15.9gram
molar mass of diiodine pentaoxide=333.8g/mol
mole of diiodine pentaoxide =15.9/333.8mol
mole of diiodine pentaoxide=0.0476mol
from the above balance equation it is clear that;
1 mole diiodine pentaoxide remove 5 mole of CO from air
0.0476 mole of diiodine pentaoxide will remove of CO from air
mole of CO that can be removed=0.238mol
mass of that can be removed from air=6.664gram
mass of that can be removed from air=6.7gram
