Answer:- 44.01 gram per mol.

Solution:- Mass of one mole means the formula mass of the compound. Carbon dioxide has one carbon and two oxygens.

So, formula mass of carbon dioxide = atomic mass of C + 2(atomic mass of O)

Atomic mass of carbon is 12.01 and atomic mass of O is 16.00. So, formula mass of carbon dioxide = 12.01+2(16.00)

= 12.01+32.00

= 44.01

So, the mass of one mole of carbon dioxide is 44.01.
