What is the mass of carbon dioxide formed when 36g of carbon is burnt?
C+O2 >C02

Mass = 132 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CO₂ formed = ?

Mass of C burnt = 36 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂    →    CO₂

Number of moles of carbon:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 36 g/ 12 g/mol

Number of moles = 3 mol

now we will compare the moles of carbon and carbon dioxide.

                C           :        CO₂

                 1           :         1

                3           :         3

Mass of CO₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 132 g

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6
