calculate the weight of CO having the same number of oxygen atoms as are present in 22g of CO2.​

Sagot :

The mass or the weight of the substance is given as the product of moles and molar mass. The weight of CO as the same oxygen atom in carbon dioxide is 28 gm.

What is mass?

Mass of the substance has been given by the moles and the molar mass of the substance and also by the Avogadro's number (Na).

It is known that the molar mass of carbon dioxide is 44, and 1 mole of it will contain 44 gm or 6.022 × 10²³ molecules.

In a carbon dioxide molecule oxygen has 2 atoms so,

6.022 x 10²³ molecules of CO₂ = 2 × 6.022 x 10²³ atoms of Oxygen

so, 44g of carbon dioxide = 2 × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of Oxygen

22 gm of carbon dioxide will also have 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of Oxygen

1 mole of carbon monoxide = 28 gm

So, 28 gm will have 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of Oxygen and will weigh 28 gm.

Therefore, the mass of carbon monoxide is 28 gm.
