Answer to Question #299154 in General Chemistry for lexis

Question

For the balanced equation shown below, how many grams of CO2 will be produced, if 46.6 grams of H2O are produced? 2CH2Cl2+3O2 → 2CO2+2H2O+2Cl2

Answer 1

2CH₂Cl₂ + 3O₂→2CO₂ + 2H₂O + 2Cl_2.

Therefore,2 moles of H₂O,2 moles of CO₂ are produced.

Mole of H₂O=46.6g/18g per mole.

= 2.59 g mole.

Therefore,2.59g mole H₂O,2.59g mole CO₂ will be produced.

Grams of CO₂ =mole × molar mass.

= 2.59 g × 44g/ mole.

Ans= 113.96 g
