Question

If 7.34 mol of O2 reacts, calculate the grams of CO2 produced.CH4 + 2O2—> CO2 + 2H2O

Answer 1

`161.48\text{ g}`

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the mass of carbon (iv) oxide produced

From the question, we have the balanced chemical reaction stating that 2 moles of oxygen molecule produced 1 mole of carbon (iv) oxide molecule

The number of moles of carbon (iv) oxide produced from 7.34 mol oxygen is thus:

`(7.34*1)/(2)\text{ = 3.67 moles}`

1 mole of carbon (iv) oxide contains 44 g

The mass in 3.67 moles will be:

`44*3.67\text{= 161.48 g}`
