Answer:
16 mol O2
Explanation:
CO + 2 O2 -> 2 CO2
1 mol CO -> 2 mol O2
8 mol CO -> x
x= (8 mol CO * 2 mol O2)/1 mol CO
x= 16 mol O2
The number of moles of oxygen that should be required for a completely reacted is 16 mol.
Calculation of the number of moles of oxygen:
Since it is required to completely react with 8.0 moles of CO(g)
Now the balanced chemical reaction should be
CO + 2 O2 -> 2 CO2
So based on this we can say that
1 mol CO -> 2 mol O2
8 mol CO -> x
Now
x= (8 mol CO * 2 mol O2)/1 mol CO
x= 16 mol O2
hence, The number of moles of oxygen is 16 mol.
