Answer:

6.78 g CO₂

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert between grams and moles, you need to use the molar mass of CO₂. This measurement is found by adding up the atomic masses of each element in the molecule. These values can normally be found on the periodic table. Next, you need to multiply this ratio by the given amount. Remember to arrange the ratio in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (in this case, moles).

Carbon: 12.01 g/mol

Oxygen: 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.01 g/mol + 2(16.00 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.01 g/mol

0.154 mol CO₂ 44.01 g
--------------------- x -------------------- = 6.78 g CO₂
1 mol

\text{1 mol CO}_2 ~~~~~= 44~ \text{grams of CO}_2\\\\\text{0.154 mol CO}_2 = \left(44 * 0.154\right)~ \text{grams of CO}_2\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=6.776~ \text{grams of CO}_2\\\\\text{Hence, there are 6.776 grams of CO}_2.
