56 grams of carbon monoxide is oxidized with excess oxygen, how much carbon dioxide will it produce?(a) 22 grams(b) 44 grams(c) 66 grams(d) 88 gramsThe question was asked in examination.My question is taken from Stoichiometry topic in division The Chemical Reaction Equation & Stoichometry, Material Balances for Processes Involving Reaction and Multiple Units of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer» RIGHT choice is (d) 88 grams

The explanation: The BALANCED chemical reaction is 2CO + O2 -> 2CO2, => moles of CO2 = moles of CO = 56/28 = 2, => amount of CO2 = 2*44 = 88 grams.
