Calculate the amount of carbon dioxide that could be produced when (1) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in air.
(2) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in 16g of dioxygen.

Explanation

(A) `C + O_(2) rarr CO_(2) , " 1 Mole = 44 gm"`.
(B) `C + O_(2) rarr CO_(2), O_(2)` is limiting reagent
`{:("Initial 1 mole = 12 gm",16 gm,),("After reaction = 6 gm",0,22 g):}`
(C ) `{:(C + O_(2)rarr CO_(2),+,O_(2),rarr CO_(2)),("2 mole",,16 gm,):}`
(`O_(2)` is limiting reagent) , Mass of `CO_(2)` formed = 22g
