In carbon monoxide, there is always 1.33 g of oxygen for every1g of carbon. how many grams of carbon are in a 16.03 gsample of carbon monoxide? carbon

There are 6.88 g of carbon in 16.03 g sample of carbon monoxide.

Carbon monoxide has formula as CO.

C => carbon

O => oxygen

From the question given above, we were told that there is always 1.33 g of oxygen for every 1 g of carbon. Thus,

O = 1.33C (1)

We were also told that the mass of CO is 16.03 g i.e

C + O = 16.03 (2)

O = 1.33C (1)

C + O = 16.03 (2)

From the equation above, we can obtained the mass of Carbon (C) as follow:

C + O = 16.03

O = 1.33C

C + 1.33C = 16.03

2.33C = 16.03

Divide both side by 2.33

C = 16.03 / 2.33

C = 6.88 g

Therefore, 16.03 g of the sample of carbon monoxide contains 6.88 g of carbon.
