Question

1. If 3.25 moles of oxygen were consumed, how much moles of carbon dioxide are
produced?

Answer 1

3.25 mol CO₂

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

C(s) + O₂(g) ⇒ CO₂(g)

Step 2: Establish the appropriate molar ratio

According to the balanced equation, the molar ratio of O₂ to CO₂ is 1:1.

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of CO₂ produced from 3.25 moles of O₂

We will use the previously established molar ratio.

3.25 mol O₂ × 1 mol CO₂/ 1 mol O₂ = 3.25 mol CO₂
