To determine the number of moles of carbon dioxide that is produced, we need to know the reaction of the process. For the reaction of HCl and sodium carbonate, the balanced chemical equation would be expressed as:
2HCl + Na2CO3 = 2NaCl + H2O + CO2
From the initial amount given of sodium carbonate and the relation of the substances from the balanced reaction, we calculate the moles of carbon dioxide as follows:
0.2 moles Na2Co3 ( 1 mol CO2 / 1 mol Na2Co3 ) = 0.2 moles CO2
Therefore, the amount in moles of carbon dioxide that is produced from 0.2 moles sodium carbonate would be 0.2 moles as well.

Answer:
0.24M
Explanation:
The equation for the reaction is given below:
H2SO4 + 2KOH → K2SO4 + 2H2O
From the equation above, we obtained the following information:
nA (mole of acid) = 1
nB (mole of base) = 2
Data obtained from the question include:
Va (volume of the acid) = 12mL
Ca (concentration of the acid) =?
Vb (volume of the base) = 36mL
Cb (concentration of the base) = 0.16 M
The Ca (concentration of the acid) can be obtained as follow:
CaVa/CbVb = nA/nB
Ca x 12 / 0.16 x 36 = 1 /2
Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:
Ca x 12 x 2 = 0.16 x 36
Divide both side by 12 x 2
Ca = 0.16 x 36/ 12 x 2
Ca = 0.24M
Therefore, the concentration of the acid is 0.24M
