Plz someone help, really struggling How many liters of carbon monoxide are needed to react with 32.65 g oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide?

2.040 mol CO

Explanation:

First, write out your reaction:

CO + O2 --> CO2

Balance the reaction:

2CO + O2 --> 2CO2

Now divide the 32.65 g O2 by the molar mass of O2 (32.00 g/mol) to get moles of O2. Then multiply by the mole ratio of 2 mol CO for every 1 mol O2 to get moles of CO needed to fully react.

32.65 g O2 / 32.00 g/mol = 1.020 mol O2

1.020 mol O2 • 2 mol CO / 1 mol O2 = 2.040 mol CO

answer is: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

this is chemical change (chemical reaction), because two new substances are formed (metalig liquid and gas), the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.

this is example of chemical decomposition.

chemical decomposition (analysis) is the separation of a single chemical compound into its two or more elemental parts or to simpler compounds.  

chemical decomposition is opposite of chemical synthesis.
