Answer the following:
How many mols in 52 g of C2H2? - divide by mol weight
How many mols of CO2 will form? look at the equation
How many grams of CO2 will be produced? multiply mols of CO2 to molecular weight (44)
Remember safety first! Check MSDS and consult with professionals before performing risky experiments.
