- Grease fires can be extinguished by applying baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate), which decomposes due to the heat to produce sodium oxide, carbon dioxide and water. 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.
