Gabriela Erickson · Answer 1

12.5 moles of oxygen

Explanation:

Ok I would need to first have a balanced equation which has a reaction ratio to answer this. and the reaction ratio is 25 O2 = 16 CO2. And the way you find how many moles are in oxygen is by putting 25 O^2/x = 16 CO2/8 mol. In other words multiply 25 by 8 and divide by 16 and you will get 12.5 moles of oxygen.
