In the manufacture of steel, pure oxygen is blown through

Chapter 1, Problem 1.1.28

In the manufacture of steel, pure oxygen is blown through molten iron to remove some of the carbon impurity. If the combustion of carbon is efficient, carbon dioxide (density = 1.80 g/L) is produced. Incomplete combustion produces the poisonous gas carbon monoxide (density = 1.15 g/L) and should be avoided. If you measure a gas density of 1.77 g/L, what do you conclude?
