Answer:

110.88g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of CO₂ = 2.52mole

Unknown:

Mass of CO₂ in the given mole = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the mole concept.

Number of moles (mol) =
(mass(g))/(molar mass(g/mol))

So;

Mass (g) = Number of moles(mol) x molar mass(g/mol)

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + 2(16) = 44g/mol

Mass(g) = 2.52 mole x 44g/mole

Mass(g) = 110.88g
