Answer:
46.76 g
Explanation:
The reaction that takes place is:
First we determine the limiting reactant:
1.3 moles of SiO₂ would react completely with (3 * 1.3) 3.9 moles of C. There are not as many C moles, meaning that C is the limiting reactant.
Now we convert C moles (the limiting reactant) into CO moles, using the stoichiometric coefficients:
Finally we convert 1.67 moles of CO to grams, using its molar mass:
