First, we need to determine the molar mass of CO2.
The molar mass of CO2 is:
Carbon = 12.01 g/mol
Oxygen = 16.00 g/mol x 2 = 32.00 g/mol
Molar mass of CO2 = 12.01 g/mol + 32.00 g/mol = 44.01 g/mol
Next, we need to calculate the moles of CO2 produced from the reaction.
From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that 2 moles of CO produce 2 moles of CO2.
So, 1 mole of CO produces 1 mole of CO2.
Given that 0.75g of CO reacts, we need to convert this mass to moles using the molar mass of CO:
0.75g / 28.01 g/mol = 0.0268 moles of CO
Since 1 mole of CO produces 1 mole of CO2, there will be 0.0268 moles of CO2 produced.
Finally, we can calculate the mass of CO2 produced:
Mass of CO2 = moles of CO2 x molar mass of CO2
Mass of CO2 = 0.0268 moles x 44.01 g/mol = 1.18g
Therefore, 0.75g of CO will produce 1.18g of CO2.
What mass of CO2 is produced when 0.75g of CO reacts according to the following reaction.when 2CO reacts with oxygen to produce 2CO2.
