`60 cm^(3)` of oxygen was added to `24 cm^(3)` of carbon monoxide and the mixture ignited. Calculate :
the volume of carbon dioxide formed.

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to follow these steps:

### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation
The reaction between carbon monoxide (CO) and oxygen (O₂) to form carbon dioxide (CO₂) can be represented as:
\[ 2 \text{CO} + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{CO}_2 \]
This equation indicates that 2 volumes of carbon monoxide react with 1 volume of oxygen to produce 2 volumes of carbon dioxide.
