Consider the reaction18 g of carbon was burnt in oxygen. How many moles of CO2 is produced?

C (s) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g).

Ans: – The mass of CO2 is 44 gm so, we can say that in the upper reaction the 12g of carbon or 32 gm of oxygen gave the 1 mole of CO2 or 44gm of carbon dioxide. So we clearly see that 18 gm of carbon will gave 1.5 mole of CO2.
