Question

What is the mass of carbon in 290 g of CO2?

Answer 1

The mass of CO22 in total is 264 g.

The atomic mass for C is 12 g / mole.

The molar mass for CO22 is (12 + (2 × 16)) = 44 g / mole.

m C = (12 / 44) × 264 = 72 g

So, there are 72 g of C in 264 g of CO2

Step-by-step explanation:

there's the answer have a good day.
