The chemical equation below shows the reaction between carbon dioxide (CO2) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH).
CO2 + 2LiOH mc011-1.jpg Li2CO3 + H2O
The molar mass CO2 is 44.01 g/mol. How many moles of LiOH are needed to react completely with 25.5 g of CO2?
0.290
0.579
1.16
1.73 @Somy @sweetburger @iPwnbunnies

CO2 + 2LiOH = Li2CO3 + H2O
OpenStudy (anonymous):
isnt it 0.0290
OpenStudy (somy):
did u calculate it or guessed?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
guessed
dont understand it
OpenStudy (somy):
not gonna work

alright
r u familiar with this formula
mole= mass/Molecular mass?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Somy
OpenStudy (somy):
hhh well then im telling you
mole= mass/Molecular mass
both mass and molecular masses for CO2 are given
put them in the formula and get mole for CO2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 1.16?

~_~ how did u get it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i guesssed dont undestand this unit at all
OpenStudy (somy):
=_= hhh
mole= 25.5/44.01 =0.579 mole of CO2
and ratio between CO2 and LiOH is 1:2
1----0.579mole
2---- x
x= 2*0579 =
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x= 2*0579 = gives me 1.158
