Answer: Consider the combustion of carbon monoxide (CO) in
Chapter 3, Problem 65P(choose chapter or problem)
Consider the combustion of carbon monoxide (\(\mathrm{CO}\)) in oxygen gas
\(2 \mathrm{CO}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)\)
Starting with 3.60 moles of \(\mathrm{CO}\), calculate the number of moles of \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) produced if there is enough oxygen gas to react with all of the \(\mathrm{CO}\).

QUESTION:
Consider the combustion of carbon monoxide (\(\mathrm{CO}\)) in oxygen gas
\(2 \mathrm{CO}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)\)
Starting with 3.60 moles of \(\mathrm{CO}\), calculate the number of moles of \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) produced if there is enough oxygen gas to react with all of the \(\mathrm{CO}\).
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
The reaction is as follows.
From the given,
Moles of = 3.60 moles
From the balanced reaction,
2 moles of reacting with 1 mole of and produce 2 moles of .
This means that 2 moles of gives 2 moles of .
So, 1 mole of will give
=
