Question

Carbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide. What mass of carbon dioxide is produced if 24 grams of carbon reacts completely with 64 grams of oxygen? *

Answer 1

88g

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the total mass of substances used up in the reaction must be equal to the amount of product formed, according to the conservation of mass law, there must be 64 g + 24 g = 88 g of carbon dioxide present after the reaction.
