    There is 3.34 L of CO2 produced

    Explanation:

    Step 1: Data given

    Volume of oxygen = 10 L

    (Assume O2 is the limiting reactant)

    Step 2: The balanced equation

    CS2 + 3O2 → 2SO2 + CO2

    Step 3: Calculate moles of O2

    22.4 L = 1 mol

    10. L = 1/2.24 = 0.446 mol

    Step 3: Calculate moles of CO2

    For 3 moles of O2 consumed, we have 1 mol CO2 produced

    For 0.446 moles of O2 we have 0.446/3 = 0.149 mol of CO2

    Step 4: Calculate volume of CO2

    Volume CO2 produced = 0.149 * 22.4 L = 3.34 L

    There is 3.34 L of CO2 produced
