PLEASE HELP ASAP While doing a conversion problem, you end up with the following equation:

86 gCO2
1
1 mol CO₂
44 gCO2
X
What unit should the 1.95 to the right of the equals sign have?
mol CO2. because gCO2 cancels out, leaving mol CO₂ as the only unit left to
transfer over to the right-hand side.
OBCO2. because that is the unit you are starting out with.
: none of the units cancel out.
1.95 ?
g mol
g
-CO₂
mol CO₂, because that is the unit that the question asks you to solve for.

Answer:

molCO2, because gCO2 cancels out, leaving mol CO2 as the only unit left to transfer over to the right-hand side.

Step-by-step explanation:

the units from the 86gCO2 cancels out with the units from 44 gCO2 cancel out (because they're the same and one is numerator, one is denominator), leaving just the molCO2
