Assuming all volume measurements are made at the same temperature and pressure, how many liters of carbon dioxide gas can be produced when 12.8 liters of oxygen gas react with excess carbon monoxide? Show all of the work used to solve this problem.

1 answer

With all gases one may use a shortcut by using liters and not converting to moles.
1. Write and balance the equation.
2. Using the coefficients in the balanced equation, convert 12.8 L O2 to liters CO2.
