Explanation:
1). The information needed to make the conversion of CO to CO₂ and vice-versa is the addition of oxygen to CO. The chemical reaction of such reaction will be:
[tex]2CO+O_2\Leftrightarrow2CO_2[/tex]2). The conversion factor that would be needed to make double-arrow 2 in the diagram for CO is to multiply the number of moles of CO by its molar mass to get the grams or divide the grams of CO by its molar mass to get the number of moles of CO.
Also, The conversion factor that would be needed to make double-arrow 6 in the diagram for CO₂ is to multiply the number of moles of CO₂ by its molar mass to get the grams or divide the grams of CO₂ by its molar mass to get the number of moles of CO₂.
The formula for the conversion factor is:
[tex]\text{Number of moles of substance }=\frac{Mass\text{ of substance}}{Molar\text{ mass of substance}}[/tex]3). The information needed to make the types of conversions represented by double arrows 3 and 7 is:
From moles to particles: Multiply your mole value of (CO or CO₂) by Avogadro's number, 6.02 × 10²³.
[tex]\text{From moles to particles }=Number\text{ of moles }\times6.02\times10^{23}[/tex]From particles to moles: Divide your particle value by Avogadro's number, 6.02 × 1023
[tex]\text{From particles to moles }=\frac{Number\text{ of particles}}{6.02\times10^{23}}[/tex]4). It is not possible to convert between the mass of a substance and the number of representative particles, as represented by double-arrow 4 because two conversion factors would be needed. The first is to convert the grams of CO to moles. The second is to converts the moles of CO to the number of particles.
