When carbon is burned in air, it reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. When 24.0 g of carbon were burned in the presence of 82.9 g of oxygen, 18.9 g of oxygen remained unreacted. What mass of carbon dioxide was produced?

88 g of CO₂ were produced by this reaction

Explanation:

We determine the combustion:

C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)

If the problem states, that oxygen has remained after the reaction is complete, the O₂ is the excess reactant and the limiting.

We convert mass to moles → 24 g . 1mol / 12g = 2 moles

As ratio is 1:1, 2 moles of C must produce 2 moles of CO₂

We convert the moles to mass:

2mol . 44g/ 1mol = 88 g

plasma is the state of matter where the substance is ionized and has no definite shape or volume. the fact of being ionized makes the substance a good electrical conductor.
