1.	Calculate the amount of carbon dioxide that could be produced when, (i) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in air. (ii) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in 16g of dioxygen. (iii) 2 moles of carbon are burnt in 16 g of dioxygen.
Answer» SOLUTION :`{:(C_((s)),+,O_(2(g)),rarr,CO_(2),),(1 mol,,1 mol,,1 mol,),(,,32 g,,44 g,):}` (i) ACCORDING Reaction, the complete combustion of1 mol carbon with air and creat `44 g CO_(2)`. (ii) For complete combustion of 1 mole carbon 32 g dioxygen gas is CONSUMED but here, only 16 g dioxygen is present. So, dioxygen is a limiting REAGENT. So, `22 g CO_(2)` gas is formed by 16 g dioxygen. (iii) According to above example dioxygen gas is limiting reagent. So, 0.5 mol `CO_(2)` gas formed 16 g dioxygen.
