The carbon diocide produced helps to smother the flames. How many grams of baking soda would need to be thrown on to a fire to produce 0.500 moles (approximately 11 L) of carbon dioxide gas?arrow_forwardThe coefficients in a balanced chemical equation provide the mole-to- mole stoichiometry among the reactants and products. The molar mass (in g/mol) can be used as the conversion factor between moles and the mass of a substance. Thus, the balanced equation and molar masses can be used in conjunction with one another to calculate the masses involved in a reaction.
