Green plants use light from the sun to drive photosynthesis, a chemical reaction in which liquid water and carbon dioxide gas form aqueous glucose and oxygen gas. calculate the moles of oxygen produced by the reaction of of carbon dioxide. be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

The question is missing the number of moles of carbon dioxide that will react with water.

I will work the problem with an arbitrary amount of carbon dioxide to show how to solve it.

For this, I will take 2.40 moles of carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

1) Word equation:

2) Balanced chemical equation

3) Mole ratios

4) Set a proportion:

It is assumed that there is plenty liquid water (excess reactant), so you can set a proportion with the number of moles of carbon dioxide:

From which, x = 2.40 mol O₂

So, the number of moles of oxygen produced is equal to the number of moles of carbon dioxide that react.

Since the number of moles of reactant has 3 significant figures, and the stoichiometric coefficients are considered exact, the answer also has 3 significant figures.
