Question

if you have 44.6 grams of CO2 gas how many liters do you have

Answer 1

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given parameters

The mass of CO2 = 44.6 grams

To find the volume, we need to find the mole of CO2 first

The formula for calculating mole is given below as

$\text{Mole = }\frac{\text{ reacting mass}}{\text{molar mass}}$

The molar mass of CO2 can be calculated using the formula unit

Mass of carbon = 12 u

Mass of oxygen = 16 u

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + 2(16)

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + 32

Molar mass of CO2 = 44 g/mol

Substituting the above parameters into the mole formula
