11. What mass of carbon dioxide is formed when 60.0g of carbon is burned in 750.0g of oxygen? (C = 12,0 = 16) A. 60.0 g B. 160.0 g C. 220.0g D. 1031 g​

Respuesta :

The mass of Carbon di oxide formed is 220 gm , Option C is the correct answer.

What is a balanced Equation ?

A balanced equation is when the moles of the reactants is equal to the moles of the products.

The equation of Carbon reacting with oxygen is given by

C + O₂ -----> CO₂

Mole fraction of Carbon and oxygen is 1:1

Molecular weight of Carbon is 12

Molecular weight of Oxygen is 16

Moles of Carbon = 60/12 = 5

Moles of Oxygen = 750/16 = 46.875

As Carbon is the limiting reagent

For 5 moles of Carbon , 5 moles of Carbon-di-oxide is formed.

5 moles of Carbon di oxide means 5 *44 = 220 gm.

Therefore , The mass of Carbon di oxide formed is 220 gm.
