In the following reaction, how many grams of benzene (c6h6) will produce 42 grams of co2? 2c6h6 + 15o2 → 12co2 + 6h2o

-

12.41 g

Explanation: -

Mass of CO₂ = 42 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 x 1 + 16 x 2 = 44 g / mol

Number of moles of CO₂ =

= 0.9545 mol

The balanced chemical equation for this process is

2C₆H₆ + 15O₂ → 12CO₂ + 6H₂O

From the balanced chemical equation we see

12 mol of CO₂ is produced from 2 mol of C₆H₆

0.9545 mol of CO₂ is produced from

= 0.159 mol of C₆H₆

Molar mass of C₆H₆ = 12 x 6 + 1 x 6 =78 g /mol

Mass of C₆H₆ =Molar mass x Number of moles

= 78 g / mol x 0.159 mol

= 12.41 g

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.

um i think it might be a car?
