Question
How many moles of carbon monoxide gas are produced from the reaction of 5.00 moles of SnO2(s) with 9.00 moles of carbon according to the equation below?
SnO2(s) + 2C(s) → Sn(s) + 2CO(g)
Question 28 options:
4.50 mol
9.00 mol
18.0 mol
5.00 mol
7.50 mol
SnO2(s) + 2C(s) → Sn(s) + 2CO(g)
Question 28 options:
4.50 mol
9.00 mol
18.0 mol
5.00 mol
7.50 mol

5 mols SnO2 reqires 10 mols C
but we only have 9
9 mols C require 4.5 mols SnO2
and yield 9 mols CO with half a mol SnO2 left over
The 10 mols CO will kill you.
