Step 1: Define

Identify variables

[Given] 6.7 L O₂

[Solve] g O₂

Step 2: Identify Conversions

[STP] 22.4 L = 1 mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O: 16.00 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of C: 12.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of CO₂: 12.01 + 2(16.00) = 44.01 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

[DA] Set up:                                                                                                       [DA] Divide/Multiply [Cancel out units]:                                                          

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.

13.1637 g CO₂ ≈ 13 g CO₂

A.

You would do 1500/4 and the answer is 375
