Answer:
1.33L of gas
Explanation:
1 mole of Baking soda (NaHCO₃) reacts with acetic acid producing 1 mole of CO₂, water and sodium acetate, thus:
NaHCO₃ + CH₃COOH → NaCH₃COO + H₂O + CO₂
5g of NaHCO₃ (Molar mass: 84g/mol) are:
5g × (1mol / 84g) = 0.0595 moles of NaHCO₃ that produce 0.0595 moles of CO₂ -Moles of gas-.
If 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4L, 0.0595 moles occupy:
0.0595 moles gas × (22.4L / mol) = 1.33L of gas
