In the presence of a catalyst carbon monoxide (CO) will reaction with oxygen (O₂) to form carbon dioxide (CO₂). How many liters of carbon dioxide can be formed from 1.5 L of carbon monoxide (with excess oxygen) if all the gases are held at the same temperature and pressure?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the balanced chemical equation for the reaction CO + 1/2 O2 → CO2, one mole of CO reacts with one mole of O2 to produce one mole of CO2. Therefore, 1.5 L of CO will produce 1.5 L of CO2 under the same conditions of temperature and pressure.
