Answer:
Explanation:
This is best answered by using a chemical reaction formula
C + O2 =====> CO2
The equation is balanced, so if there are 0.6 moles of Carbon on the left, there is going to be 0.6 moles of Carbon on the right.
1 mol of Carbon has a mass of 12 according to the periodic table.
0.6 mol of Carbon has a mass of 0.6 * 12 = 7.2 grams of Carbon
Comment: Remember that the conservation of mass says that what ever started on the right (reactant side), must wind up on the product side (the right).
