Carbon dioxide reacts with lithium hydroxide to produce lithium carbonate and water.
What mass of lithium hydroxide would be required to react with 1.00 x 103 grams of carbon dioxide?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.08827 x 10^3 g.

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is:

2LiOH + CO2  ---->  Li2CO3 +  H2O

Using the molar masses:

CO2 = 12.011 + 2* 16 = 44.011.

LiOH = 6.94 + 1.008 + 16 = 23.948

S0 44.011 of CO2 reacts with  2*23.948 g of LiOH

1.00 *10^3 g CO2 reacts  with   2*23.948 * 1.00 *10^3 / 44.011

= 1088.27 g LiOH.
