What mass of calcium oxide is formed by the reaction of 5.6 liters of oxygen with the required amount of calcium

2Ca + O2 = 2CaO.

Let’s determine the amount of oxygen.

n = 5.6 / 22.4 = 0.25 mol.

0.25 mol O2 – x mol CaO.

1 mol O2 – 2 mol CaO.

X = 0.25 * 2: 1 = 0.5 mol.

M (CaO) = 56 g / mol.

m (CaO) = 56 * 0.5 = 28 g.

Answer: the mass of calcium oxide is 28 g.
