Question

Tungsten(VI) oxide can be reduced to tungsten by heating it with carbon, as shown in:
2WO3(s) + 3C(s) <--> 2W(s) + 3CO2(g)
if the original mass of WO3 is 37.0g, how many grams of CO2 must be collected from the reaction in order to infer that the solid that remains is pure tungsten?

So do I convert 37g to moles, and then use my mole ratio of 2:3 to find grams of CO2?

Answer 1

@Abmon98 am I right

Answer 2

yes thats show me your steps

Answer 3

thats right**

Answer 4

37/231.84 =0.1596mol

0.1596mol (3/2) = 0.2394mol CO2

0.2394mol * 44.01 = 10.54g
