Answer:

Mass of carbon = 109.1 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of carbondioxide = 400 g

Mass of carbon = ?

Solution:

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Mass of carbon in 400g of CO₂:

Mass of carbon = 12 g/mol/44 g/mol × 400 g

Mass of carbon = 109.1 g
