Given the equation 2CO + O₂ $\rarr$ 2CO₂,how many grams of CO₂ form if 34.0 grams of CO are combined with excess oxygen?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molar mass of CO is 28.0 g/mol, so 34.0 g of CO is 34.0/28.0 = 1.214 mol. The balanced equation shows a 1:1 molar ratio between CO and CO2, so 1.214 mol of CO2 is formed. The molar mass of CO2 is 44.0 g/mol, so 1.214 mol of CO2 is 1.214 * 44.0 = 53.4 g.
