Final answer:

To convert 5.0 g of CO₂ to moles, divide the mass by the molar mass of CO₂ (44.01 g/mol). The result is 0.1136 mol of CO₂.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert grams of CO₂ to moles of CO₂, we need to use the molar mass of CO₂, which is 44.01 g/mol. We can use the formula:

Moles = Mass (g) / Molar Mass (g/mol)

So, for 5.0 g of CO₂:

Moles of CO₂ = 5.0 g / 44.01 g/mol = 0.1136 mol

Therefore, 5.0 g of CO₂ is equal to 0.1136 moles of CO₂.
