22 g of CH burns completely in excess oxygen. What mass of carbon dioxide is produced? (H = 1, C = 12, O = 16)

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. 66 g

  1. Step 1: Molar mass of CH g/mol, so moles mol.
  2. Step 2: Each mole gives 3 mol of CO, i.e. g.
Answer
66 g.
Why not the others: 36 g: that is the mass of the other product. 132 g: it doubles the correct value. 22 g: the mass of fuel is repeated.
