Question
When elemental carbon is burned in the open atmosphere, with plenty of oxygen
gas present, the product is carbon dioxide.
C (s) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g)
However, when the amount of oxygen present during the burning of the carbon is
restricted, carbon monoxide is more likely to result.
2C (s) + O2 (g)
→ 2CO2 (g)
What mass of each product is expected when a 5.00-g sample of pure carbon is
burned under each of these conditions?

"Smelling salts," which are used to revive someone who has fainted, typically
contain ammonium carbonate, (NH4)2CO3. Ammonium carbonate decomposes
readily to form ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water. The strong odor of the
ammonia usually restores consciousness in the person who has fainted. The
unbalanced equation is
(NH4), CO3 (s) → NH3 (g) + CO2 (g) + H20 (g)
Calculate the mass of ammonia gas that is produced if 1.25 g of ammonium
carbonate decomposes completely.
