Answer:
44 grams of CO₂ will be formed.
Explanation:
The balanced reaction is:
C + O₂ → CO₂
By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of each compound participate in the reaction:
- C: 1 mole
- O₂: 1 mole
- CO₂: 1 mole
Being the molar mass of each compound:
- C: 12 g/mole
- O₂: 32 g/mole
- CO₂: 44 g/mole
By stoichiometry the following mass quantities participate in the reaction:
- C: 1 mole* 12 g/mole= 12 g
- O₂: 1 mole* 32 g/mole= 32 g
- CO₂: 1 mole* 44 g/mole= 44 g
The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.
If 12 grams of C react, by stoichiometry 32 grams of O₂ react. But you have 40 grams of O₂. Since more mass of O₂ is available than is necessary to react with 12 grams of C, carbon C is the limiting reagent.
Then by stoichiometry of the reaction, you can see that 12 grams of C form 44 grams of CO₂.

I believe Mendeleev formed his periodic table by atomic weight (nowadays we do it by atomic number) so he likely used those values.
The size of the atoms a and the number of holes in the atoms can be used to decode the element.
<h3>What are models?</h3>
A model is a miniature depiction of reality. Molecular models often consists of boxes that contain balls which are used to represent elements. In common parlance, the color is used to show the type of element.
Apart from the color, the size of the atoms a and the number of holes in the atoms can be used to decode the element.
