Answer:
Mass = 132 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of CO₂ formed = ?
Mass of C burnt = 36 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
C + O₂ → CO₂
Number of moles of carbon:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 36 g/ 12 g/mol
Number of moles = 3 mol
now we will compare the moles of carbon and carbon dioxide.
C : CO₂
1 : 1
3 : 3
Mass of CO₂:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 3 mol × 44 g/mol
Mass = 132 g
