C + O2 = CO2

Biology

Answer:

44 g CO₂

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the reaction is:

C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)

Thus, 1 mol of C(s) reacts with 1 mol of O₂. We convert the moles to grams by using the molecular weight of each compound (C= 12 g/mol; O₂= 32 g/mol):

1 mol C(s) = 12 g/mol x 1 mol = 12 g

1 mol O₂= 32 g/mol x 1 mol = 32 g

The stoichiometric ratio C(s)/O₂ is 12 g C/32 g O₂. We have 40 g of O₂, so it will be consumed:

40 g O₂ x 12 g C/32 g O₂= 15 g C(s)

And we have 12 g. Thus, the limiting reactant is C(s).

Now, we use the limiting reactant to calculate the mass of product produced (CO₂)

Molecular weight CO₂ = 12 g/mol x 1 C + (16 g/mol x 2 O) = 44 g/mol

1 mol CO₂ = 44 g/mol x 1 mol = 44 g

So, 44 grams of CO₂ are produced from 12 g of C(s) (44 g CO₂/12 g C). So, the amount produced when 12 g of C(s) reacts with 40 g O₂ is:

12 g C(s) x 44 g CO₂/12 g C(s) = 44 g

Which best describes the interaction between dna and rna during protein synthesis? a rna carries the code to the nucleus where d
Step2247 [10]
C) RNA<span> carries the code from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

The ribosomes are in the cytosol/cytoplasm, but DNA is in the nucleus. DNA is too large to travel out of the nucleus, so it needs the help of mRNA to transfer the genetic code to the ribosome, which translates the code into a protein. That means A, B, and D cannot be true. </span>
