Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find number of moles present in 16 grams of carbon dioxide.

Let there are n number pf moles,

n = given mass/molecular mass

The molecular mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

So,


n=(16\ g)/(44\ g/mol)\\\\n=0.36\ \text{mol}

So, there are 0.36 moles in 16 grams of carbon dioxide.
