I just wanted someone to go over my answer for this question and lemme know if it's good!
Q: The reaction of potassium superoxide, KO2 is used in life-support systems to replace CO2(g) in expired air with O2(g). The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is:
4KO
2 (s) + 2CO
2 (g)
2K
2CO
3 (s) + 3O
2 (g)
a) How many moles of O
2 are produced by the reaction of 156g CO
2 with excess KO
2 (s)?
b) How many grams of KO
2 are consumed per 100 g CO
2 removed from expired air?
c) How many O
2 molecules are produced per mg of KO
2 consumed?
My answers: (I am 90% sure i did the steps correctly, i tend to make silly errors in my answers so i just wanted to compare my ans with what some of you get)
a) 5.32 mol O
2 b) 323.09 g KO
2 c) 6.35x10
18 molecules of O
2 Thanks!
i hope i got the right answers
