Answer #1

The given reaction is, C(s)+O2 (g)CO2 (g) AH393.5kJ The energy released for one mole of gas is 393.5kJ For 460kJ of heat, the

Answer #2

C + O2 --> CO2 delta H rxn = -393.5

First, they gave you that the enthalpy of reaction is -393.5 kJ/mole (those are the units that should have been included). The amount of material to give you 520 kJ is

Moles carbon = 460 kJ/(393.5 kJ/mole) = 1.168 moles
Moles CO2 = moles C = 1.32 moles
Mass CO2 = 1.168 moles * 44.01 g/mole = 51.44g
